Tony-winning musical 'Book of Mormon' returning to Ohio Theatre in October
"The Book of Mormon," which drew crowds when it came to Columbus in 2018, is returning by popular demand to the Ohio Theatre for an eight-show run Oct. 8-13.
The irreverent musical comedy follows two eager, young missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to a remote Ugandan village, where they attempt to preach their faith to the inhabitants.
Tickets start at $39 and are available at the CBUSArts ticket center at the Ohio Theatre, 39 E. State St., by calling 614-469-0939 or online at broadwayincolumbus.com.
