They also gave the audience a vote on whether they wanted to hear it.  The Viva Forever audience has asked for similar tomorrow.

Fantastic audience tonight for the best show I've ever seen. Very funny random moments tonigt included one of the tridents in hell dream breaking and flying into the audience and Chris Jarman corpsing at the end of I believe, prompting an even more positive audience reaction at the end of the song.

Some were asking which Elder played which in the show. I think I've worked it out as:

Mark Anderson as Poptarts/Harris
Daniel Clift as Church/Grant
Ashley Day as Cunninghams dad and Elder Neely/Young
Patrick George as Michaels/Cross(?), Brigham Young
Michael Kent as Davies/Brown(?), Mormon
Daniel Mackinlay as Elder Mackinlay (ironically, Benjamin Schraders part)/White
And Liam Wrate as Zelder/Smith

Think that's them, ita astonishing how similar they look at times.

Understudies:

Prices Dad/Joseph Smith/Mission President - Matt Krzan, Mark Anderson
McKinley - Mark Anderson, Michael Kent
Price - Ashley Day, Luke Newton
Mafala - Terel Nugent, Oliver Lidert
Nabalungi - Lucy St Louis, Candace Furbert
General - Tosh Wanogho-Maud, Terel Nugent

Hope this clears things up for anyone.

What did you think of Stephen and Alexia?

Stephen was hilarious as Elder McKinley. It was a much smaller role than I imagined it would be going in but he stole the scenes whenever he was onstage.

Alexia is an adorable Nabulungi (amongst the other names Cunningham gave her included Nickelodeon, Notting hill and Nala). Her Salt Lake City sounded nice however the orchestra sometimes overpowered her, something I'm sure will be worked out by opening, after-all, it was only a dress rehearsal. The reprise of Hasa Diga was a highlight for me. I'm a sucker for real tears on stage and Alexia had them!

The ensemble are all fantastic! Special mentions go to Sharon Wattis who is hilarious as Mrs Brown and the also hilarious  Olivia Phillip who gets the best lines in the show ("What the f*ck is a steak knife?")
