OPENING: THE BOOK OF MORMON Is Back at Bank of America Theatre With $25 Day-Of-Show Ticket Drawings

Here at ChiIL Mama & ChiIL Live Shows, we are so super stoked that Book of Mormon is BACK in Chicago as of this Wednesday. We've been promoting it's return for months and it's finally here. Book of Mormon is one of the funniest musicals I'd never take my kids or parents to see. That said, I adore Book of Mormon and can't wait to see it again. It's both irreverent and entirely relevant at the same time! Do note, this show is not for the easily offended, but highly recommended for everyone else. 

Earworm Warning: the tunes are crazy good and they WILL seep under your skin and go on auto repeat in your brain. 




“THE BEST MUSICAL OF THIS CENTURY.
Heaven on Broadway!  A celebration of the privilege
of living inside that improbable paradise called a musical comedy.”
Ben Brantley, THE NEW YORK TIMES
