The hit production is the longest-running show in the 99-year history of the O'Neill (a distinction the production has carried since 2019) as well as the 12th longest-running Broadway show of all time.

You know I’ve never actually seen The Book of Mormon but I have won the tickets via the lottery at least 10 different times, I have just never been home when I have won. The Book of Mormon began it’s broadway run in 20ll, and won nine Tony’s that year, and even one best musical. They are about to mark a huge new milestone which is that they are about to hit 5,000 runs of the show on November 4th of this year. The Book of Mormon is the 12th longest running broadway show and is the longest show in 99 years in the O'Neill theatre, which is where the show lives. They have a huge cast and production team, and I have only heard good things about the show. I have heard that it is super funny so I really hope to see it soon, whenever I can.
