Der skrev en kort forklaring om mormons bog?
Joseph Smith
The Book of Mormon (musical)
Book of Mormon blev udtænkt af Robert Lopez, Trey Parker og Matt Stone. Både Parker og Stone voksede op i Colorado og kendte til Jesu Kristi Kirke af Sidste Dages Hellige (LDS-kirken) og dens medlemmer. Forfatterne blev venner på University of Colorado Boulder. På universitetet samarbejdede de på en musikalsk film, Cannibal! The Musical (1993), deres første erfaring med filmmusicals. I 1997 skabte de tv-serien South Park for Comedy Central og musicalfilmen South Park fra 1999: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. De to havde først tænkt på en fiktionaliseret Joseph Smith, religiøs leder og grundlægger af sidste dages hellige-bevægelsen, mens de arbejdede på en afbrudt Fox-serie om historiske personer. Deres film fra 1997, Orgazmo, og et afsnit af South Park fra 2003, "All About Mormons", behandlede begge mormonismen på komisk vis. Smith var også med som en af South Parks "Super Best Friends", et Justice League-parodihold af religiøse figurer som Jesus og Buddha.
Joseph Smith
The Book of Mormon (musical)
The Book of Mormon was conceived by Robert Lopez, Trey Parker, and Matt Stone. Both Parker and Stone grew up in Colorado, and were familiar with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and its members. The writers became friends at the University of Colorado Boulder. At the college, they collaborated on a musical film, Cannibal! The Musical (1993), their first experience with movie musicals. In 1997, they created the TV series South Park for Comedy Central and the 1999 musical film South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. The two had first thought of a fictionalized Joseph Smith, religious leader and founder of the Latter Day Saint movement, while working on an aborted Fox series about historical characters. Their 1997 film, Orgazmo, and a 2003 episode of South Park, "All About Mormons", both gave comic treatment to Mormonism. Smith was also included as one of South Park's "Super Best Friends", a Justice League parody team of religious figures like Jesus and Buddha.
