Review | Devilishly good and outrageously funny, Book of Mormon may not be for the easily offended but is all the better for that
THE BOOK OF MORMON MUSICAL, EDINBURGH PLAYHOUSE ****
Few smash hit musicals come with the tag ‘Not for the easily offended’ but if ever one deserved such a trigger warning, it’s The Book of Mormon, especially if you are of a religious bent. South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone with Avenue Q co-creator Robert Lopez’ outrageous and arguably blasphemous retelling of the holy book of the Church of Latter Day Saints has very little off limits as it mines its dark themes for laughs.
