"Internet Mormons" mentioned in Saturday's Voyeur.

Post by _krose »

Last week I went to this year's production of the Salt Lake Acting Company's annual play, Saturday's Voyeur. It was a great show. But I was surprised to hear one of the characters (Brother Nephi Jensen) describe the difference between "Internet Mormons" and "Chapel Mormons." Perhaps Nevins and Borgenicht (the playwright and lyricists) have spent a bit of time on the board.

I would not recommend this year's performance to very conservative folks or sensitive TBMs. It's set in the Church Office Building and the Lord's Mall; and it features reprogramming of gays and Democrats, Gayle Ruzicka's lost bra, and a drunk Angel Moroni.

My favorite song was the BYU female interns singing "We Will Follow Mitt" to the tune of Petula Clark's old song.

Holy cow. I'm definitely going to have to attend that play for sure.
