Clever, Entertaining, Hilarious, Great writing, Funny

See it if you have a dark-ish sense of humor. I lol'd so much during the show. Loved the singing/dancing and have to admit it lived up to the hype

Don't see it if you're easily offended/highly religious. I had a great time but would probably not bring my mom to see it. Read more

"Hallelujah! 'The Book of Mormon' is the funniest religious spoof since Monty Python and the Holy Grail...A creative watershed in Broadway history...Directors Casey Nicholaw and Trey Parker make all the action, songs, and the actors’ fluid repartee blend together into a harmonious, uproarious evening of theater that, for many, will make one an instant convert to the genius of 'The Book of Mormon.'"

"It's everything you love from South Park live - which I didn't think was possible. If you have the money and the time you should definitely go see it. It's amazing, it's crazy, it's wonderful, it's beautiful, it's a masterpiece."
