The Tony Award-winning “The Book of Mormon” will make its Birmingham debut in early 2015, the organizers of Broadway in Birmingham said today.

The controversial musical, by the creators of the equally controversial TV series "South Park," will come to the BJCC Concert Hall in February 2015. The show will be in Birmingham for one week, and specific dates, ticket prices and on-sale date will be announced later.

“The Book of Mormon” has been the hottest ticket on Broadway since its bow in March 2011. Written by Trey Parker, Robert Lopez and Matt Stone, it won nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical. It also won a Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.

“The Book of Mormon” is about two young Mormon missionaries sent to a remote village in Uganda. The score is funny and profane, leading Vogue Magazine to call the show “the filthiest, most offensive, and – surprise – sweetest thing you’ll see on Broadway this year, and quite possibly the funniest musical ever.”

“The Book of Mormon” will be part of the 2014-2015 Broadway in Birmingham season. The 2013-14 season continues with "War Horse," which is at the BJCC tonight through Sunday.
