The Book Of Mormom Broadway Musical (Hover)

According to advance publicity, one of them "chronicles the days leading up to Christmas, 1825, when Joseph Smith Jr. And his father, on the run from the law as confidence men and scammers, return in disgrace to the family farm in upstate New York to save their house from being repossessed. In the process of escaping the clutches of both their creditors and the investors they'd recently fleeced, they lay the foundations of Mormonism." It purports to be "based on historical accounts of Mormonism's early years." Ref. Source 9
