Running at 2 hours and 30 minutes, the Book of Mormon was a surprising yet welcome addition to Broadway theatres when it started over a decade ago, back in 2011 at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre. The imaginative take on the Book of Mormon was a record-breaker. In just the first nine months of the show, it broke the weekly box office record 22 times!! By mid-2022, it had already grossed more than $1 Billion Dollars around the world. Over the past decade, the musical amassed awards over all of its productions globally as well, ranging from Tony Awards, Grammy Awards, Olivier Awards, Drama Desk Awards and Helpmann awards among many other acclaims.
The Book of Mormon blends the key ideas of faith, culture shock, and classic theatre into its comedic musical. Its plot features two very different Mormon missionaries, Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham, its leading characters, as they are tasked to preach their faith to convert the native villagers of a remote village in Uganda to their religion. It turns out to be more difficult than expected however, as they discover that the village faces more urgent affairs 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 locals with help from the village 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 blend of fact and fiction, blatantly taking stories from science fiction and fantasy works such as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings that lead on the villagers more to convert. The two techniques of Price and Cunningham clash, orthodox and unorthodox respectively, as they struggle try to strategize the best way to achieve the mission they set out for in the first place.
