About this listen

Irreverent, outrageous, and wildly successful, The Book of Mormon shocked Broadway when it opened in 2011 and became one of the most talked-about musicals of the last decade. Created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone (South Park) along with Robert Lopez (Frozen, Avenue Q), the show skewered religion, faith, and Broadway conventions with equal bite. In this episode of Broadway Now, we explore how The Book of Mormon turned shock humor into box-office gold, its record-breaking run, and the debates it continues to spark.
