'The Book of Mormon' Is Making Its Long-Awaited Return to Melbourne and Brisbane in 2026
After its blockbuster Sydney season, 'The Book of Mormon' will return to Melbourne and Brisbane in 2026 with a new cast and the same irreverent humour that made it a hit.
After a sold-out Sydney season, the Tony and Grammy Award-winning musical The Book of Mormon is heading back to Melbourne and Brisbane in 2026.
The hit production will return to Melbourne's Princess Theatre next February — the same venue where it made its Australian debut in 2015 and set a new record for the highest-selling on-sale period in the theatre's 159-year history — before opening at Brisbane's QPAC in July.
The Australian cast features Sean Johnston (Hairspray) as Elder Price, Nick Cox (Beauty and the Beast) as Elder Cunningham, and Paris Leveque, who made her professional debut in the Sydney season, as Nabulungi. They're joined by Tom Struik (Sister Act the Musical), Simbarashe Matshe (Filthy Business), Augie Tchantcho, reprising his role as The General, and Matthew Hamilton (Tina – The Tina Turner Musical).
Winner of nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and a Grammy for Best Musical Theatre Album, The Book of Mormon has earned global acclaim since its Broadway debut in 2011. Created by South Park's Trey Parker and Matt Stone, alongside songwriter Robert Lopez (Frozen, Avenue Q), the production combines biting humour with sharp satire and unforgettable music.
You can join the waitlist for priority access to tickets via The Book of Mormon website.
