It's quickly becoming a household name. Although it's nothing like some of the shows considered 'classic Broadway', it has erupted into an existence far from anything of its kind on stage. Book of Mormon could be considered a somewhat mythical creature in the realm of theatre. The ultimate amalgamation of all things Broadway and South Park - this show is a masterpiece.

Last night, April 13, THE BOOK OF MORMON stars David Larsen (Elder Price) and Cody Jamison Strand (Elder Cunningham) appeared at Wrigley Field to sing the Chicago Cubs National Anthem, deliver the ceremonial First Pitch and lead the Seventh Inning Stretch. Scroll down for photos!

Being on tour with a great production like THE BOOK OF MORMON is a great experience by itself. But, being on the road means there is a lot of time to be able to do things you have a passion about. Adam Ray, decided he wanted to share his passion and his emotions on his first country album titled “The Clown Parade.” Adam shared with BWW some of his thoughts and feelings surrounding his new music.

The musical that has had theatregoers buzzing since its premiere, The Book of Mormon, has finally made its way to Madison.

That shock value - however - is what makes this show so unbelievably fun.

Andrew Rannells, Celia Keenan-Bolger, Caissie Levy, and more welcome Gavin Creel back to the U.S. and Broadway at Joe's Pub tonight, January 26th at 9:30pm to benefit The Performing Arts Project.
