‘The Book of Mormon’ Opens to Raves

The creative team of ‘The Book of Mormon‘ takes a bow after opening on Broadway last night. From left: Director and choreographer Casey Nicolaw, creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and composer Bobby Lopez. 

So far, rave reviews.

“‘The Book of Mormon'” achieves something like a miracle. It both makes fun of and ardently embraces the all-American art form of the inspirational book musical. No Broadway show has so successfully had it both ways since Mel Brooks adapted his film ‘The Producers’ for the stage a decade ago.”

Here’s the cast at the finale.  I believe that’s Mormon founder Joseph Smith at left.
