The Book of Mormon returns to Sydney with the unruly humor that made it a sensation on Broadway and the West End. Created by the team behind South Park and Avenue Q, the musical follows two young missionaries whose assignment goes sideways fast, leading to missteps, culture clashes and lessons they never expected. With nine Tony Awards including Best Musical, along with major Olivier and Grammy wins, the show is praised for its wit, tight staging and quick choreography. Critics rave about its bold humor and clever construction, and the Sydney run gives audiences another chance to catch this global favorite.

The Story

Two missionaries are sent far from the world they know and arrive in a village that challenges every belief they bring with them. Their well-meaning attempts to guide the community spiral into misunderstandings, shifting alliances and questions neither was trained to answer. Themes of faith, identity and expectation sit beneath the chaos as both try to redefine their mission. Their choices push them toward a revelation they never saw coming, but the outcome is anything but certain.
