Award-Winning Musical The Book of Mormon Takes the Stage in Austin

The illustrious and uproarious musical "The Book of Mormon" is making a grand return to Austin's Bass Concert Hall starting November 14. With an engaging lineup, the show promises eight spectacular performances within the week, featuring double headers on both Saturday and Sunday.

Audiences will be taken on a journey with two LDS Church missionaries in Uganda, as they undertake the monumental task of converting local residents. The musical's humor—bearing a marked resemblance to "South Park"—is the brainchild of the same creators, ensuring a blend of satirical commentary and bold comedic elements. It has been met with critical acclaim since its debut, capturing prestigious accolades such as Best Musical and Best Original Score at the 2011 Tony Awards.

The original cast's vibrant soundtrack saw a triumphant rise, breaking into the Top 10 on the iTunes charts, and securing a Gold certification with sales surpassing half a million. "The Book of Mormon" has been deemed one of Broadway's highest-grossing hits, with its international reach extending to awards for Best New Musical at London's Laurence Olivier Awards and Best Musical at the Helpmann Awards.

For those eager to experience this theatrical phenomenon, limited tickets remain available through the Texas Performing Arts website, with sales moving rapidly. Showtimes offer variety, with evening shows from Tuesday to Thursday at 7:30 p.m., and a Friday show at 8 p.m. The weekend buzzes with a 2 p.m. matinee followed by an 8 p.m. evening show on Saturday, wrapping up with Sunday's final curtains at 1 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.
