The Book of Mormon
Overture Center-Overture Hall 201 State St., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
Hailed as one of the funniest musicals of all time, this production, created by infamous South Park originators Matt Stone and Trey Parker, follows two ill-matched missionaries who travel to war-torn Uganda. Though perhaps diminished by its out-of-touch and outdated depiction of its Ugandan characters, this musical contains an important message about the power of devotion and service.
press release: 2019/20 Broadway at Overture Series presented American Family Insurance and in partnership with Broadway Across America:
THE BOOK OF MORMON | Tuesday, Sept. 17-Sunday, Sept. 22, 2019
The New York Times calls it “the best musical of this century.” The Washington Post says, “It is the kind of evening that restores your faith in musicals.” And Entertainment Weekly says, “Grade A: the funniest musical of all time.” Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show calls it “Genius. Brilliant. Phenomenal.” It’s The Book of Mormon, the nine-time Tony Award®-winning Best Musical.
This outrageous musical comedy follows the misadventures of a mismatched pair of missionaries, sent halfway across the world to spread the Good Word. Now with standing room only productions in London, on Broadway and across North America, THE BOOK OF MORMON has truly become an international sensation.
THE BOOK OF MORMON and Overture Center are pleased to announce a lottery ticket policy for the upcoming Madison dates, which begins September 17 and plays a limited one-week engagement through September 22. The production will conduct a pre-show lottery in the Overture Center lobby, making a limited number of tickets available at $25 apiece (inclusive of fees).
The wildly popular lottery for the Broadway production has attracted as many as 800 entries at some performances. The producers of THE BOOK OF MORMON are pleased to offer low-priced lottery seats for every city on the National Tour.
Lottery entries will be accepted at the box office beginning two and a half hours prior to each performance; each person will print their name and the number of tickets (1 or 2) they wish to purchase on a card that is provided. Two hours before curtain, names will be drawn at random for a limited number of tickets. Only one entry is allowed per person. Cards are checked for duplication prior to drawing. Winners must be present at the time of the drawing and show valid ID to purchase tickets. Limit one entry per person and two tickets per winner. Tickets are subject to availability.
