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.

The Book of Mormon could have and should have been fun and funny, but instead it crossed the line into offensive and unpleasant. Although it can be entertaining to make jokes about an unusual group like the Mormons, it is a different thing to make fun of women who are subjected to female genital mutilation (female circumcision) or africa villages that are oppressed by warlords. To make a joke of oppression, murder and abuse is not funny. The juvenile humor that the show employed had some funny moments, but I found myself cringing far more often then I found myself laughing. I was also surprised by the number of people who left during intermission. I absolutely would not recommend this show and frankly regret having paid money to see it in the first place.

Sorry folks, but I'm a 50 yr old mom of 2 teenagers and I was totally disgusted with the raunchiness and disgusting language of this play. I'm an avid play-goer and guess I should have looked at reviews prior to buying tickets, but I found the language and actions obscene and filthy and the play was too sexually explicit for me and my hubby. I am no prude, but unless you like a play full of filthy language and perverted actions, you won't like this one.

On a good note, the singing voices and acting was absolutely fantastic! Too bad it's wasted on such bad dialogue.

I can't tell you much without giving away the whole plot. Suffice it to say it is written by the creators of South Park and is not surprisingly vulgar and irreverent - but, as is their wont, it brings to light serious issues in a way that is unnervingly funny and incredibly memorable. I laughed to the point of crying in parts. If you are a Mormon you will need the skin of a rhinoceros to watch it. And don't go if you are offended by swearing or talk about sex. Otherwise it is well worth the ticket!

The show itself was great. Sitting in the balcony was not. The sound was very loud but it was very difficult to understand the words they were singing. All 4 of us who went could only understand half of the words being spoken and half the words in the songs. the ushers were aware of the problem and told us they've been trying to remedy over the duration of the show but they could not. that being said, i still enjoyed myself, only wish we could've been able to understand the whole thing. there were many times the audience was laughing out loud but those of us in the balcony had no idea why.

I understood the premise and what was going on, but due to the acoustics, it was difficult at time to hear the lyrics, especially when everyone was singing. Otherwise, I knew what was going on, but in today's world, that humor can be seen in a normal office environment (if the right funny people are around), so I am accustomed to that type of humor, so my humor bar is set a bit high.
