The storyline follows the journey of two Mormon missionaries as they endeavor to spread their faith with the residents of a modest Ugandan settlement. Crafted by the authors of South Park, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, as well as the record-breaking EGOT holder, Robert Lopez, the score is renowned for garnering its very own Tony Award.
In reaction to pleas from cast members to reassess the portrayal of black characters in light of concerns about racial equality, a handful of lyrics and points of the narrative were somewhat altered back in 2021. Nevertheless, the concepts of friendship, faith, and optimism, which surpass all faiths, persist the same during the performance.
In their evaluation, The New York Daily News reveals how The Book of Mormon is a performance where you regularly find yourself laughing one minute and afterwards discover your mouth agape the following, ultimately tearing up and, eventually, rooting for the lead singers. Writers Stone and Parker are notorious for their "take-no-prisoners, nothing-is-sacred method to comedy."
Moreover, Lopez exemplifies a knack for thumbing his nose at modern standards. As all three share credit for the book, music, and lyrics, this show can be described as "foolish, heartfelt, and remarkably impolite, while the score uniformly upbeat and clever keeps the pages in this Book moving smoothly.”
The Eugene O'Neill Theatre is regarded as one of the leading spots for in-demand Broadway shows in the whole New York! Drop by the performance area at New York for the best watching event of The Book of Mormon.
