The Book of Mormon opened in 2011 to ecstatic reviews.
The New York Times hailed the show as “the best musical of this century.”
It's gone on to win nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
The show was created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the five-time Emmy Award-winning creators of South Park, and Robert Lopez, two-time Academy Award winner for Best Original Songs.
How Much Does It Cost To See The Book of Mormon On Broadway?
Tickets are on sale through Broadway Direct.
Regular-priced tickets usually start from about $77 for mezzanine seating and can reach $150 for premium seating, depending on the day of the week.
Sometimes StubHub and Ticketmaster offer somewhat cheaper tickets or better seats for the same price as Broadway Direct, so why not take a look?
Digital Lottery Tickets
The Book of Mormon runs a digital lottery where you can enter online to win up to two $45 tickets.
Go to the lottery website. You will need to create an online account (it is free to do so).
Both evening performances and matinees are listed. Select the dates you would like to see the show.
You can enter the lottery for all performances listed.
Lottery entries are accepted until 10 a.m. on the day before the performance. Winners are drawn at 11 a.m. that same day.
If you are selected, you must purchase your tickets by 3 p.m. the day before the performance online with a credit card.
You can purchase up to two (2) tickets.
Seat locations are determined at the discretion of the box office.
While every effort is made to keep seats together, pairs may be split up.
Please note that lottery seats may have a partially obstructed view of the stage.

Some shows have an in-person lottery at the theater box office but currently, The Book of Mormon does not.
Our detailed post on Broadway ticket lotteries goes over how they work, and which shows offer them.
For sold-out shows, there may be a very slim possibility of standing-room-only tickets.
