(NEW YORK, NY) -- When The Book of Mormon played its 4643rd performance, it passed Jersey Boys to become the 12th longest running show in Broadway history. The Book of Mormon is also the longest running show in the history of Jujamcyn Theatres and is the longest running show in the 98-year history of the Eugene O’Neill Theatre (230 West 49th Street).
The Broadway cast of The Book of Mormon, thrilled to join the long-running ranks of Jersey Boys, celebrates the Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons musical with a “Walk Like A Man”/ “Man Up” mashup. Watch it here.
