Welcome to Bismarck's most spacious and world-class musical theatres, Bismarck Event Center is showcasing the Book of Mormon on October at Tuesday 21st October 2025. Enjoy world-class staging, sound design, and architecture, Bismarck Event Center is already praised by both locals and foreigners in Bismarck as its greatest musical venue.

The musical runs at 2 hours and 30 minutes, the Book of Mormon was a surprising yet welcome addition to Broadway theatres when it debuted over 10 years ago, back in 2011 at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre. The imaginative take on the Book of Mormon was a box office success. Within just 9 months of its debut it broke the weekly box office record 22 times!! By mid-2022, it had already grossed more than $1 Billion Dollars around the world. Showing throughout the past decade, the show amassed awards all over the world as well, ranging from Tony Awards, Grammy Awards, Olivier Awards, Drama Desk Awards and Helpmann awards among many other acclaims!

The Book of Mormon blends the key ideas of religion, culture shock, and classic theatre into its comedic musical. Its narrative features two very different Latter-day saints (LDS) missionaries, Kevin Price and Arnold Cunningham, its leading characters, as they are sent on a mission for training to convert the native villagers of a remote village in Uganda to their religion. It turns out to be more difficult than expected however, as they learn that the village faces more pressing matters such as poverty, famine, an HIV/AIDS epidemic, and even oppression from a local warlord. Faced with the challenge, it is Cunningham who is able to get through to the villagers with assistance from the local leader’s daughter, Nabulungi, and an unusual talent for lying. Though not as competent on the Mormon doctrine as his fellow Mormons, he invents stories that are a mix of fact and fiction, drawing information from pop culture and fantasy works such as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings that convince the villagers more to convert. The two techniques of Price and Cunningham clash, orthodox and unorthodox. Comedy ensues as they both try to strategize the best way to achieve the mission they set out for in the first place.
