The Book of Mormon was written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone -- the two comedy geniuses behind the anarchic TV show South Park.

Elder Price and Elder Cunningham are trying to spread the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to Africa, but religion is the last thing on the villagers minds when they've already got AIDS, famine and a beef between local warlords to worry about - who cares about Mormonism!

The young missionaries soon discover that charm and good looks will only get them so far in life, and they have a lot more to learn about the real world than they have to teach the villagers.

Written by the creators of TV's South Park

Fans of TV's South Park will know exactly what to expect -- they don't do taboos and the humour can be a bit bawdy at times!

The satirical show takes absolutely no prisoners... aiming pot shots at everything from the state of the economy and organised religion to consumerism and musical theatre.

The show has been hailed as a work of comic genius, but it does contain some strong language and a few scenes that some might consider offensive... hence why it's been recommended for adults aged 18 and above.

Critically acclaimed run on Broadway

During its Broadway run the show picked up 9 Tony Awards and 14 nominations for 'Best New Musical', 'Best Original Score' and 'Best Direction'.

It's still delighting (and shocking!) audiences ten years after it came out, and its tickets are among the most sort-after in the West End.

What the theatre critics say...

Sunday Telegraph: ★★★★★ "It's hilarious. God have mercy upon my soul"; Evening Standard: ★★★★ "Indecently funny. The killer whale of comedy"; The Independent: ★★★★ "Brash, crude, and offensive. A massive hit"; Mail on Sunday: ★★★★★ "Fearlessly stuffed with foul expletives, full-frontal filth, profound political incorrectness and blasphemy"
