Frequently Asked Questions

What is the plot of The Book of Mormon?

The musical follows two well-meaning Mormon missionaries, Elder Price and Elder Cunningham, who are sent to Uganda. They face culture shock, poverty, illness, and skepticism from the villagers. Cunningham’s imaginative storytelling reshapes the message, creating real connections. It’s a sharp, satirical, and surprisingly sweet story about faith, friendship, doubt, and belonging.

Has the show won any awards?

Yes—it won nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Original Score, and Best Direction. It also earned the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album, and has received Olivier Awards internationally. It’s one of the most celebrated modern musicals.

When and where is the Wilmington, DE performance?

The national tour plays at The Playhouse on Rodney Square (part of The Grand Opera House) from March 27 through March 29, 2026, with shows on Friday and Saturday evenings and Saturday/Sunday matinees. Doors open about an hour before curtain.

How long is the show and is there an intermission?

The show runs approximately two and a half hours, including one 15‑ to 20‑minute intermission—enough time to stretch, visit the restroom, grab a drink or snack.

What age group is the show suitable for?

This is a mature musical with strong language, sexual and religious satire. It’s best suited for teens and adults (age 17+), and not recommended for younger children.

How much do tickets typically cost?

Face‑value tickets range from about $35 to $110 depending on sections. Resale prices may go higher as shows sell out, especially for evening performances.

How can I get cheap tickets?

For savings, choose balcony or side mezzanine seats—they’re usually the most affordable. Subscribe to The Grand’s season membership early for priority access and discounted pricing. Also check reputable resale sites for last-minute deals below face value. On performance days, ask the box office about rush or lottery tickets.

Are group discounts available?

Yes—groups of 10 or more may qualify for discounted pricing through The Grand’s group sales. Book early to secure seats together and get the best rates.

Is it safe to buy resale tickets?

It is when you use reputable resale platforms offering ticket guarantees. Avoid street or third‑party sellers with extremely low prices—they can be scams.

Is parking available at The Playhouse on Rodney Square?

Yes—there are nearby parking garages (e.g., Willing Street, Riverfront Garage) and street parking. Arrive early to get a close spot and avoid showtime stress.

What should I wear?

The dress code is smart casual—slacks and a nice shirt or a simple dress are ideal. The Playhouse can be cool inside, so bring a light sweater or jacket.
