It is truly magical watching this show come together! 🧜♀️ Beginning with mystical mermaids recalling how starstuff, the most powerful material on earth, led to their transformation from ordinary fish to curious creatures, Act 2 is jam packed with action, puppetry, song, laugh-out loud moments and surprises. Check out the video to hear more from Dead Puppet Society Creative Director and Director and Designer of the production David Morton.

Sydney secures The Book Of Mormon premiere Award-winning musical comedy The Book of Mormon will premiere in Sydney when it returns to Australia in 2025. Supported proudly by Destination NSW, the hit show sold more than 45,000 tickets on the first day of public sales in 2018 during its inaugural run. At the time it was a new record for the highest-grossing on-sale of any musical theatre production in Sydney’s history. The NSW Government has ambitious goals to grow the creative industries sector in our state and supporting shows such as The Book of Mormon is key to achieving this. Sydney’s reputation as a major cultural and creative hub has been reinforced by the production being secured for the Capitol Theatre, Sydney.
