From "South Park" creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the hit musical examines the beliefs and practices of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints with satire and musical comedy.

Since opening on March 24, 2011, "The Book of Mormon" has come to be considered one of the most successful shows in Broadway history.

And when considering the West End production — which brought in the highest single day of sales in West End history — the list of accolades also includes four Olivier Awards including Best New Musical.

"The Book of Mormon" has played Spokane twice before: August 2014 and January 2016.
