The Book Of Mormon at Fred Kavli Theatre

Historically famous as one of the premier theatre venues in Thousand Oaks, Fred Kavli Theatre At Bank Of America Performing Arts Center has always been the coveted choice as a play or show venue, largely because of its second to none interior and exterior architecture that is both spacious and well-decorated. The Book of Mormon will be performing for a limited season in Fred Kavli Theatre At Bank Of America Performing Arts Center in February, on Friday 7th February 2025.

Legendary duo Matt Stone & Trey Parker, alongside Robert Lopez have once again succeeded in creating another comedy masterpiece but in an entirely new medium for them. This time being in in the musical genre. The Book of Mormon, centered on Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham, two Mormon missionaries of the Mormon religion, begin on their journey to baptize and convert the local villagers of a village in Uganda. The musical, however serious it may sound, delves away from a serious approach to sharing this story, as it instead uses satire and even blasphemy to reveal the truth behind the way religion is passed on and religious stories are interpreted.

Theatre fans globally and for the past decade since its Broadway premiere in 2011 have received The Book of Mormon positively. Despite mocking religious teachings, and often satirical, it also comes with a lesson that actually supports faith and religion beneath its language. Throughout its two acts, the musical gradually also converts itself from a play full of cursing, adult themes, and profanity to one that shares a deep message. In one of their reviews, The New York Times recognizes this and stated that “The central theme of The Book of Mormon is that many religious stories are silly – the idea that God would plant golden plates in upstate New York. Many religious doctrines are rigid and out of touch. But religion itself can do enormous good as long as people take religious teaching metaphorically and not literally; as long as people understand that all religions ultimately preach love.”
