The Book of Mormon is Adelaide-bound

The Book of Mormon is Adelaide-bound

It’s confirmed: The Book of Mormon will be in Adelaide next year.

The popular Tony, Olivier and Grammy Award winning musical will begin its Adelaide season on June 27, 2019 at the Festival Theatre. Written by South Park’s Trey Parker and Matt Stone with Robert Lopez (Avenue Q), the musical comedy tells the tale of two missionaries who travel to a small village in Uganda to preach the Mormon religion but find little interest from the locals.

Beginning its Broadway run in 2011, The Book of Mormon ran for 380 consecutive weeks on Broadway, winning nine Tony Awards and grossing more than $500 million. The sold out Australian leg began in Melbourne in January 2017 before moving to Sydney. The musical will stop for a short stint in Perth (from May 16, 2019) before landing in Adelaide.

Tickets are on sale from tomorrow, Tuesday. August 7.
