Starting March 15, 2022, the musical The Book of Mormon will once again be performed at the Carré. Tickets for the show go on sale July 5.

The Book of Mormon was also performed at the Amsterdam Theater in 2019. After an eventful period, Carré brought this positive and successful performance back to Amsterdam. “Under the banner of Broadway at Carré, the theater brings the Broadway experience to the Netherlands, so everyone can see the shows as they were created and intended,” the theater said. The Tony, Olivier and Grammy Award-winning show follows two Mormon boys sent on a mission to Africa, far from their home in Salt Lake City. The cast for the international tour will be announced soon. Amsterdam will be the only city outside the UK to house this international representative.

Since its world premiere in March 2011 at the Eugene O’Neill Theater in New York, where it won nine Tony Awards including Best Musical, The Book of Mormon has been performed on three continents and won more than thirty international awards. The musical broke all records for ticket sales in New York, London, Melbourne and Sydney.

Screenplay, music and lyrics are by Trey Parker, Robert Lopez and Matt Stone. It is directed by Casey Nicholaw and Trey Parker. Nicolau is also responsible for the choreography. The musical arrangements were done by Larry Hochman and Stephen Oremus and the musical direction and vocal arrangements were also by Stephen Oremus. The Book of Mormon is produced by Anne Garifino, Important Music Company, and Sonia Friedman Productions.

Broadway at Carré

In the Broadway at Carré series, world-leading productions are presented exclusively at the Carré, in their original English-language version. According to the theatre, everyone can see the performances as they were created and intended. In 2016, Carré brought the musical Pippin to the Netherlands. In the fall of 2017, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time ran for two weeks at a sold-out Carré. The successor to Sunset Boulevard was presented in March and April 2018. With The Book of Mormon, Carré’s long-cherished wish came true in 2019. After an eventful period, Carré brought this successful positive performance back to Amsterdam.
