I had no idea what to expect. I had heard from everyone who had seen this to expect a great show. With a doorbell so prominent in the advertising, I had pictured it as a comedy taking place "Anytown, USA" but it SO doesn't. So immediately it was nothing like I had expected.

I had heard there was bad language, but the language was so far over the top I was a little shocked. I was not offended, and it was used in a very funny way, but I had not been prepared by the disclaimer, "Strong language and adult themes".

I heartily recommend it to anyone who understands what they are getting into! It was funny and the music was great.

For anyone who is familiar with Mormon and their missions, and who is hard to offend with foul language and sexual innuendo, this is a worthy show and will be thoroughly enjoyed.

Book of Mormon will surprise you! You are laughing along at the outrageous antics and fast paced kenetic energy and all of a sudden it hits you - this thing has a message! It's subtle so don't miss it. There is some language but it makes a point, it's not language for the sake of using those words to shock. How the ensemble keeps their high energy level throughout the production is a mystery to me, but they do. Days later, we are still quoting lines to each other, for me, that's how you know you loved it!

This was one of the best plays I have seen in a long while. Although I am not a fan of South Park, I did enjoy the sarcasm and comical jokes in this play. The writers were very creative. I went in with an open mind and the play met my high expectation. I learned about this during the Tony awards in 2011 and even downloaded the soundtrack. I had every song memorized before the play started. The last time I did that was for Rent. I would highly recommend to anyone who is not easily offended

The Book of Mormon is the funniest musical I have ever seen! I did not know much about it other than it had received rave reviews, won 9 Tony Awards, was written by the South Park team and after more than a year it was still the hottest ticket on Broadway. I’m glad I didn’t know the storyline which was well written and kept me engaged from beginning to end. It deals with some heavy subject matter in a brilliant way. It is clever, hilarious, spectacular, irreverent, and sacrilegious and… I was laughing the entire time SEE IT, unless you are easily offended. I loved it!

First I would like to say that I have been a fan of South Park ever since I was a kid. I've seen every episode, many episodes at least ten times, and I've watched the movie. I love Matt Stone and Trey Parker and their humor works so well. So when I found out that they made a musical, I jumped at the opportunity to see it. I thought it was the same type of humor as South Park, which was fantastic! They make fun of things in such a clever way, where actually there is a message behind the comedy. I loved the music, the lyrics, the actors, the set design, all of it was perfect. I highly recommend it for anyone and everyone who has a sense of humor and who loves to laugh.

The Book of Mormon is one of the funniest musicals I have seen in a long time. It was an amazing production with a stellar cast, incredible sound, and a technical crew that worked very hard on making the show perfect. I have seen many shows in LA and have come away feeling like I was ripped off due to poor sound, garbled dialogue and cheap sets. Sometimes when a tour company comes to LA, it feels like the producers go "on the cheap" since this isn't Broadway. Not so for Book of Mormon. Although the language is explicit, it is an outstanding show that promises big and delivers. Don't miss it!

I loved the idea of this play and enjoy much of the humor of its writers. It was fun and I had a few good chuckles. I had a few problems though...maybe because it was so hyped up by friends who had already seen it. First, I could not understand a lot of the "Ugandan" accents and missed a lot of lines because of it. I saw others leaning over to their play-mates and asking the same thing, "What did they say?" To me, none of the music was memorable because I usually leave a good musical humming one of the songs. The rest, well, it's the Pantages that was the problem. They had a snaking line for the bathroom that rivaled the Matterhorn ride at Disneyland. A handful of stalls for people drinking beverages (they serve alcohol). A couple minutes before the lights flickered the end of intermission, an usher tells us there is a much smaller line on the other side of the theatre...thanks! Meanwhile, there's a huge mirrored powder room that should be converted to toilets! This isn't a new problem. It's always been this way. Come on Pantages, give a girl a break! Oh, let's not forget the $5 M&Ms!

I am utterly amazed at how much professional performers have to give; and the cast in BoM made me feel as if they were performing just for me. There were astonishing solo moments, but it's an ensemble show and the ensemble is uniformly good, at times terrific. While the language is often profane, at times gratuitously so, it's also funny, clever, and intelligent. The book has something to say and it says it with style, warmth, and humor. I also felt like the writers of the show respect musical theater history and that this show was a little like a love song, a tribute to it. It's not this big self-conscious egotistical statement about being cool; it's about being good. I'm not a Mormon, but I don't happen to feel that this show laughed at them as much as it invited us to laugh with them, and the enormous amount of faith required to subscribe to almost any religion. It was a wonderful evening that I will recall often.

Usually nothing lives up to the hype, especially when it starts reaching such ridiculous climaxes like the hype surrounding The Book of Mormon.

Well, dare to dream, boys and girls.... because it's AS good as everything you've heard about it. Insanely hilarious. It's a biting satire of religion wrapped in a sweet package. It's intelligent and poignant. And it's vulgar as hell.

One song, Hasa Diga Eebowai will go down in history as one of the all time single greatest songs from a musical ever. A highlight not just of the show, but of all human innovation!

Overall, it's perfect. Really, a stunning and magnificent masterpiece. Go see it. It's impossible to leave disappointed.

Yes, It was crude. Yes, it was sophomoric. Yes, it was offensive. And yes, it was absolutely brilliant. No one and nothing is spared the hilarious, and spot-on barbs thrown at a rapid-fire pace by a universally talented cast. Not since Cats have I walked away humming the music. It's that infectious. Drive/fly to wherever its playing and pray you can get tickets.
