Broadway phenomenon from South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, with Avenue Q co-creator Robert Lopez, won nine 2011 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Book and Best Original Score.



The show tells the story of two young Mormon missionaries who are sent to a small town in Uganda to bring news of the Latter Day Saints. They are shocked at the cultural differences, as a War Lord threatens the local villages and controls the area by fear. Both missionaries attempt to share the scriptures with the local people, although only one of them knows it well enough. Famine, poverty and AIDS threaten the town, and the duo must battle their own beliefs in order to succeed and make a change. The Broadway production currently stars Gavin Creel and Christopher John O’Neil while the London production stars Nic Rouleau and Brian Sears as Elders Price and Cunningham respectively.



The show is an edgy and sometimes outrageous satire musical which takes shots at everything from organized religion to consumerism, the state of the economy and the musical theatre genre itself.



Please note that transportation is not included in the ticket to give students the opportunity to travel into London at their leisure. However, students who have purchased a ticket will be sent information closer to the show date regarding the option to travel as a group on the train to London.
