The Book of Mormon, which follows a pair of mismatched Mormon boys sent on a mission to a place that’s about as far from Salt Lake City as you can get, features book, music, and lyrics by Trey Parker and Matt Stone (creators of South Park) and Robert Lopez (co-creator of the hit musical comedy Avenue Q.) The show is choreographed by Casey Nicholaw (Monty Python’s Spamalot, The Drowsy Chaperone) and is co-directed by Nicholaw and Parker.

Parker, Stone and Lopez worked on the show for seven years and, as Parker said on opening night March 24, 2011, “The show is what we wanted it to be. It’s the show we fantasized about, what we hoped for and dreamed of.” Little could they have dreamed of the monster success the show has become: nine Tony Awards including Best Musical, twelve Drama Desk Awards, a Grammy-winning cast album, universally rave reviews, sold-out performances on Broadway, a national touring company to start a 17-city beginning August 14, 2012 in Denver and continuing through August 2013, a third company in Chicago opening in December, and a fourth in London opening in March 2013.
