Running at 2 hours and 30 minutes, the Book of Mormon was a new and fresh addition to Broadway theatres when it started over 10 years ago, back in 2011 at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre. The imaginative take on the Book of Mormon was a box office success. Within just 9 months of its debut it broke the weekly box office record 22 times!! By mid-2022, it had already earned more than $1 Billion Dollars around the world. Showing throughout the past decade, the show accumulated awards worldwide as well, ranging from Tony Awards, Grammy Awards, Olivier Awards, Drama Desk Awards and Helpmann awards among other citations.
The Book of Mormon mixes the themes of religion, culture shock, and classic theatre into its comedic musical. Its plot features two very different Mormon missionaries, Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham, its main characters, as they are tasked to preach their faith to convert the local population of a remote village in Uganda to their religion. It turns out to be a challenge however, as they find out that the village faces more practical issues such as poverty, famine, an AIDS epidemic, and even oppression from a local warlord. Thinking outside the box, it is Cunningham who is able to successfully preach to the villagers with assistance from the local leader’s daughter, Nabulungi, and an original approach . Though not as well versed on the Mormon doctrine as his fellow Mormons, he invents stories that are a mix of fact and fiction, blatantly taking stories from pop culture and fantasy works such as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings that convince the villagers more to convert. The two ways of Price and Cunningham clash, orthodox and unorthodox. Comedy ensues as they both try to conceive the best way to achieve the mission they set out for in the first place.
