“The Book Of Mormon” A Winner

The profane and hysterical “The Book of Mormon” took home nine Tony Awards on Sunday including the prize for best musical, a considerable achievement for a pair of first-time Broadway playwrights known more for their raunchy cartoons featuring potty-mouthed kids.

Collecting the best musical prize, a subdued Trey Parker, who tied Josh Logan of “South Pacific” with four Tonys in one evening, said he’d be remiss if he didn’t thank his late book co-writer — Joseph Smith, the founder of the Mormon religion.  “You did it, Joseph! You got the Tony!” Parker said looking skyward and holding up his award.  More on last night’s Tony Awards here .  AP Photo

Do you consider the South Park guys comedic geniuses or too offensive?  Do you think you would attend this musical if it ever came to Spokane?
