I accept it's all my fault, and I apologise. Please, let's all be friends, and agree to disagree, like friends did pre June 2016.
Have I ever mentioned that Wicked didn't do anything for me?

Trying to decipher your post,49th and 8th which I am taking as another personal dig at me I can't stop you feeling how you feel, but it wasn't. It's something I've thought for years and it's all about knowing when it's appropriate to express one's apathy or dislike for something someone else in your proximity loves. |

I grabbed some of the £15 tix and saw this tonight at the hippodrome with my whole family (including grandma) - and they all loved it. In fact the whole audience seemed to have a fantastic time.
Was very impressed with the whole cast and especially interested to later discover the actor we saw as Elder Price was the 2nd cover!
I saw BoM a couple of times in the West End so really enjoyed returning to it now.

Can't wait for it to come to Dublin, I assume its coming for the Dec-Jan qChristmas period like most of the other big name musicals.

I also went last night with a group of family and friends, all dotted around the theatre, slotted in to where we could get tickets - what a bargain for £15.00 and such an amazing audience response. I've only seen the show once before in London (about 4 years ago) and have been meaning to get back but never quite managed so was really chuffed that they offered preview tickets online. Really wouldn't have known that we were seeing a second cover for Elder Price, he did a great job! They've announced today that they are doing £15.00 lottery tickets for the rest of the Birmingham run, but you need to get your lottery applications in before 12noon tomorrow - thebookofmormonmusical.com/birminghamlottery/ |

So, the first venue of the tour has opening night tomorrow. Very curious to hear about the changes to the show.
Anybody seeing the tour before it opens up again in London?

I’ll be heading home at some point in the next few weeks to see the Cardiff run but I’ve only seen the show once before and that was in early 2018 so I won’t be able to remember what was different to be honest!

Saw this tonight. So good to be back at the WMC. The show is in such a great shape and it has a really strong cast. Saw in in London a couple of years ago and I would say tonight was the stronger show.
Full audience who all seemed to have a great time. Standing ovation was well earned I would say.
No programme - just a free paper booklet with cast info - is this new or will programmes be making a return?

Has anyone with Glasgow tickets had an update on what is happening with the dates? I was meant to be there on Thursday (6th) but still haven’t heard anything from ATG regarding rescheduling or refunds.

With the talk on the other thread, it reminded me I caught the tour recently. This was my first time seeing the show but I had a good idea what to expect, with no idea whether or not I'd enjoy it. I actually liked it quite a lot, the cast were all excellent though some of the vocals could have been a little stronger, but possibly they just weren't to my taste. Aviva Tulley was astonishing as Nabulungi. I was a bit on the fence about some of the more 'pushing it' humour, and vaguely wondered how they were getting away with it these days as others have mentioned, however the audience LOVED it and were roaring with laughter pretty much the entire time with a full standing ovation.

I saw The Book of Mormon on Broadway in March 2011 and while I was an avid South Park viewer, this stage show was uncomfortable. My friend back then love it. I didn't feel the need to return until I was recently in London and great seats were available for cheap and I heard that they had made changes to the libretto. 11 years on, and the show has an amazingly good cast, but I could wait another decade before returning. |

Having seen this show is coming to Newcastle next week for three weeks (which seems a very long time for a tour in the current climate) I checked out the sales.
It is selling very well but one thing that shocked me was that stalls side seats that are marked as restricted view (which cost £15 this week for Play that Goes wrong and are usually £15-25 depending on the production) are for this show... wait for it... £70! £70 for a seat for a tour labeled as restrictive view. Madness!!
