The Book Of Mormon

Prince Of Wales Theatre

From the creators of South Park comes the West End's most outrageously hilarious musical. The Book of Mormon follows two mismatched Mormon missionaries sent to Uganda, where their faith is put to the test in ways they never expected. Winner of nine Tony Awards and four Olivier Awards, this irreverent comedy is now the 12th longest-running musical in West End history.

What is The Book of Mormon about?

Elder Price is a confident, ambitious young Mormon who believes he's destined for greatness. Elder Cunningham is his awkward, enthusiastic companion with a tendency to make things up. When they're paired together and sent on a mission to a remote village in Uganda, they discover that spreading the word is a lot harder than they imagined - especially when the locals have more pressing concerns than religion.

How long has The Book of Mormon been running in London?

The Book of Mormon opened at the Prince of Wales Theatre in February 2013 and is now in its 13th year. In January 2026, it became the 12th longest-running musical in West End history, overtaking We Will Rock You after its 4,660th performance.

Is The Book of Mormon offensive?

The show is deliberately provocative and satirises religion, but its creators describe it as ultimately a love letter to faith and to musicals. The Mormon Church itself responded good-naturedly, noting that the show would entertain audiences for a night, while "the Book of Mormon as a volume of scripture will change people's lives forever." The humour, while explicit, comes from a place of affection.

What are the best songs in The Book of Mormon?

The hilarious score includes 'Hello!', 'You and Me (But Mostly Me)', 'Turn It Off', 'Hasa Diga Eebowai', 'I Believe', 'Baptize Me', and 'Tomorrow Is a Latter Day'. The songs brilliantly parody traditional musical theatre while telling a surprisingly heartfelt story.

What are the best seats for The Book of Mormon?

The Stalls at the Prince of Wales Theatre offer the most immersive experience for the show's energetic numbers. The Royal Circle provides excellent sightlines and lets you appreciate the full staging. For a comedy, being able to see facial expressions adds to the enjoyment, so closer seats are often preferred.
