The Book Of Mormon at Hollywood Pantages Theatre

Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham are two coming of age Mormon missionaries tasked with a mission to a remote Ugandan village. Their goal is to convert the locals to their faith, but they learn upon their arrival that their job is more difficult than they had imagined, given the abundance of local issues that the villagers are against such as a local warlord, an HIV/AIDS epidemic, and poverty among others. The pair then gradually realize that they must employ more unique means to get through to the locals than the traditional means that they know.

It is in the pair’s differing ways where the performance of The Book of Mormon excels – allowing the subject matter of religion to be blasphemed and made fun of with comedy, showtunes, and a bit of rude language, yet still remaining acceptable to its audience. Since its debut in 2011, the The Book of Mormon has been received positively despite its manner of conveying its message. The Mormon church itself supported the musical, purchasing ads and releasing marketing marketing material that stated: “You’ve seen the play, now read the book.” In its West End productions, the repeatedly sold-out shows were a testament to The Book of Mormon’s success. Theatre goers were already eagerly curious given the content and theme of the play, according to The Guardian, it was even to their surprise that “suddenly you realize you’re in for not just humour but a seriously fine night of entertainment, and it just keeps on getting better.” The musical’s run in Australia also loved by theatre fans, with the Sydney Morning Herald even proclaiming that the Book of Mormon is a “dynamite production of a show that can lay fair claim to being the funniest Broadway musical of all time.”

It's no shock that because of the musical's creativity, The Book of Mormon’s several productions all over the world have earned it nine Tony Awards, four Drama Desk Awards, three Outer Circle Critics awards, four Olivier Awards, and two Helpmann Awards.

This upbeat, happy, and totally comedic musical continues its tour in California. Los Angeles’s greatest theatre venue, Hollywood Pantages Theatre, with its spacious seating capacity, outstanding lighting, and masterful sound system will be hosting this February’s performance of The Book of Mormon.
