Old and new theatre fans alike in California now have another reason to be excited, as The Book of Mormon will be having a limited season in San Francisco, staged at Orpheum Theatre on Saturday 17th January 2026. Witness top-level comedy from watching the production of the same creators of South Park and the musical Avenue Q.
The Book of Mormon is a musical about the way religion is taught, specifically of the assignment given to Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham, who through clever methods, strive to convert villagers of a local village in Uganda. This Tony Award-winning show, that has gone on to have successful stagings in the U.S., London, and Australia, running for more than a decade to date, unmasks the way religious stories are told, with comedy through classical Broadway.

Orpheum Theatre
Known as one of the most spacious and world-class show venues, Orpheum Theatre is showcasing the Book of Mormon on January at Saturday 17th January 2026. Known for its world-class staging, sound design, and architecture, Orpheum Theatre is already praised by both locals and tourists in San Francisco as its greatest musical venue.
The musical runs at 2 hours and 30 minutes, the Book of Mormon was a new and fresh addition to Broadway theatres when it premiered over a decade ago, back in 2011 at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre. The inventive take on the Book of Mormon was a box office success. In just the first nine months of the show, it broke the weekly box office record 22 times. By mid-2022, it had already earned more than $1 Billion Dollars around the world. Showing throughout the past decade, the Book of Mormon amassed awards as well, ranging from Tony Awards, Grammy Awards, Olivier Awards, Drama Desk Awards and Helpmann awards among other citations.
The Book of Mormon blends the key ideas of faith, culture shock, and classic theatre into its comedic musical. Its story features two very different Latter-day saints (LDS) missionaries, Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham, its leading characters, as they are tasked to preach their faith to convert the native villagers of a remote village in Uganda to their religion. This proves to be more difficult than expected however, as they learn that the village faces more pressing matters such as poverty, famine, an HIV/AIDS epidemic, and even oppression from the local General. Thinking outside the box, it is Cunningham who is able to get through to the locals with aid from the local leader’s daughter, Nabulungi, and a bit of creativity. Though not as knowledgeable on the Mormon doctrine as his companions, he invents stories that are a mix of fact and fiction, copying from science fiction and fantasy works such as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings that entice the villagers more to convert. The two techniques of Price and Cunningham clash, orthodox and unorthodox. Comedy ensues as they struggle try to strategize the best way to achieve the mission they set out for in the first place.
