Running at 2 hours and 30 minutes, the Book of Mormon was a surprising yet welcome addition to Broadway theatres when it started over 10 years ago, back in 2011 at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre. The inventive take on the Book of Mormon was a hit smash. 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 all over the world as well, ranging from Tony Awards, Grammy Awards, Olivier Awards, Drama Desk Awards and Helpmann awards among many other acclaims.
The Book of Mormon mixes the themes of religion, culture shock, and classic theatre into its comedic musical. Its plot features two very different Latter-day saints (LDS) missionaries, Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham, its main characters, as they are sent on a mission for training to convert the local population of a small African village in Uganda to Mormonism. It turns out to be a painstaking mission however, as they learn that the village faces more pressing matters such as poverty, famine, an AIDS epidemic, and even oppression from the local General. Thinking outside the box, it is Cunningham who is able to get through to the villagers with assistance from the local leader’s daughter, Nabulungi, and a bit of creativity. Though not as competent on the Mormon doctrine as his fellow Mormons, he invents stories that are a mix of fact and fiction, copying from pop culture and fantasy works such as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings that lead on the villagers more to convert. The two ways of Price and Cunningham clash, orthodox and unorthodox respectively, as they struggle try to conceive the best way to achieve the mission they set out for in the first place.
