About The Book of Mormon 

The Book of Mormon is the nine-time Tony Award and four-time Olivier Award-winning Best Musical which is currently touring the Uk.

This outrageous musical comedy from the creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and Bobby Lopez, the Co-writer of Avenue Q and Frozen, follows the misadventures of a mismatched pair of missionaries, sent on a mission to a place that's about as far from Salt Lake City as you can get.
