Hello! Four new cast members will join the cast of The Book of Mormon on Broadway at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre beginning October 28.

The new cast members include Diego Enrico as Elder Cunningham, Sydney Quildon as Nabulungi, Charlie Franklin as Elder McKinley, and Jay Wilkison as Joseph Smith/Mission President. Enrico and Quildon make their Broadway debuts with the show.

The four replace longtime Book of Mormon cast members Cody Jamison Strand, Keziah John-Paul, PJ Adzima, and Lewis Cleale, respectively.

Notably, Strand has played Elder Cunningham for 13 years across Broadway, London's West End, and the U.S. national tour, making him the longest-serving actor ever in the role. Cleale is an original Book of Mormon cast member, having been with the show for 14 years since its 2011 premiere.

Winner of nine Tony Awards including Best Musical, The Book of Mormon is a satire about two Mormon missionaries who get in way over their heads when they're sent to convert a Ugandan village. The show is created by double EGOT winner Robert Lopez and South Park's Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
