Most of these are from the instagram accounts of the cast or from recordings (Silas Holst and Simon NĆøiers)

i think it's really important that connor shows up in kevin's helldream and is depicted to laugh at him and taunt him. for example:
he is depicted as if saying "aww, gonna cry about it?" after arnold comes through scolding kevin for leaving him.
disregarding all the sexual references and gay allegories seen throughout the dream, this can also be seen as one. not only has connor appeared, but he has appeared to flaunt around tauntingly and laugh and sneer at kevin for all his flaws and sins he's committed.
you can look at this in the sense that, even if we as humans like someone (whether it be platonically or romantically) subconsciously and we are not aware of these feelings, we will still feel the need to impress them and do our best at everything around them to get their attention and approval. kevin already does this with everyone because of how his ego has been fueled and his need that everyone thinks he is the best, so imagine how it would be for someone heāeven subconsciouslyāhas feelings for. he would desperately want their approval and would go out of his way to make himself look even better than usual.
connor appearing in the dream only to combat these subconscious needs and male fun of kevin and jeer at him (and of course, provide extra gay allegories, etc etc) makes a lot of sense looking at it this way and mirrors this, because kevin having these feelings/gay thoughts would feel wrong to him, therefore there would be a lot of other things (like this) to show he is struggling internally with how he feels
anyway those are my morning thoughts. it's 6:30 am and i need to get dressed
Why I love the headcanon that Kevinās Father is The Mission President
Mini essay on me thinking way too deeply into this than I should be:
Firstly, I need to make it clear that traditionally, Priceās Dad, Joseph Smith, Jesus and The Mission President are played by the same guy, with the Original Broadway Cast having Lewis Cleale in all these roles.
I feel like it makes sense. Kevinās Father being The Mission President would explain Kevinās dedication to the church, since he grew up with TMP as his father. He wouldāve been close to TMP and likely had more insight to the church than the other elders at the missionary training centre did. Kevin is dedicated to the church because he is dedicated to making his father proud. The whole mormon thing comes easier to him due to him being raised in a hyper religious setting, more so than the other elders did. It also proves an explanation for why the other elders look up to him so much and see him as the ākindest most deserving elderā. Maybe they want to get closer to him because they know about his connections with TMP, or maybe they just know how their parents always talk about Kevin Price being the perfect son, knowing he is the son of TMP. It would also explain Arnoldās Father saying that Kevin is a son any father would be proud to have. He has expectations put on him by his peers and other adults due to him being the son of TMP, and even with little insight into what Kevin is really like, other adults already put him on such a high pedestal due to his father.
It also brings a whole new outlook on Jesus and Joseph Smith. It is shown that Jesus and Joseph Smith in the musical are just how Kevin perceives them to be, especially in SMHD where Jesus is clearly Kevinās own interpretation, and in AAP where Kevin is the one telling the story of Joseph Smith. Both of those characters looking suspiciously like his dad would make lots of sense. He looks up to his dad, and he sees his dad like some sort of prophet, especially due to his role in the church. Itās also funny to think that SMHD is about Kevinās worst fears and guilts, and that being scolded by Jesus looking suspiciously like his father is one of his worst fears.
His fathers connections to the church would also benefit him on his mission. Maybe itās possible that instead of heavenly father having a hand in everything, it is in fact Kevinās dad. Itās reasonable to think that since Kevinās Dad is the Mission President, it is possible he chose specifically to send Kevin to Uganda. Maybe he wants Kevin as far away as possible, or maybe he just trusts his son with this mission more than anyone else. This would make most sense towards the end of Act 1, when Kevin is reminded of the Mission President and makes the decision to go and talk to him about getting a transfer. He is scared, he just saw a man get shot, and he wants to go and beg his dad to let him go home. Why else would he go straight to TMP without even considering it? Would he not know how hard it is to get a transfer, and would he not be embarrassed that him, the perfect mormon boy, is begging for a transfer? Itās his father, so he feels somewhat more comfortable going to him and begging for a way out.
Anyway I think thatās it. This is much less of a theory and more of a āwow! this headcanon makes so much senseā Iāve never seen this hc in any fics, or even mentioned within the fandom, and I only started to think about it once I was listing out different casts to attach to recordings. I hope this makes at least a little bit of sense

thank you very much anon š«¶š«¶
i love you hutenberg men the only men ever.. hollywood power couple
I am making this to help out anyone who is writing fanfics or drawing fan art of The Book Of Mormon and wants to draw the elders accurately or keep them in character. I will involve all lines from each character + their fandom given first name and other small things that indicate their personality or traits. I will also state the animal they brought up in I Am Africa since I believe the animals do reflect their personalities in some way.
- Elder āJamesā Church
- Given the name James by the fandom
- OBC actor: Brian Sears
- Comes from Cheyenne, Wyoming
- When he was young his parents were in an abusive relationship, with his alcoholic father abusing him and his mother
- āOkay, okay, HOLD ON! I mean⦠We COULD⦠SAY that we had some baptismsā Is the elder that suggests lying about how many baptisms district 9 has achieved
- āWe were SO worried about youā Is the first elder that tells Kevin they were SO worried about him when he fell asleep at the bus station
- In I Am Africa he sings ā(with) The Noble Lion Kingā
- In I Am Africa he also sings āA tribal woman who doesnāt wear a braā
- Elder āMichaelā Michaels
- Given the name Mike by the fandom
- OBC actor: Clark Johnsen
- Comes from Provo
(I could not find a photo of him, please accept this photo of the actor as an offering)
- Elder āChrisā Thomas
- Also goes by Elder Poptarts
- Given the name Chris by the fandom
- OBC actor: Scott Barnhardt
- His sister died from cancer and he was unable to say goodbye since he was at the apple store in line for a new iphone. Her last words were āWhere is my brotherā
- āYou, too?! I had the hell dream after I accidentally read a Playboy!ā Had his first hell dream after accidentally reading a playboy
- āWell, somebody needs to tell that General Butt-F-ing Named that people should be free to do what they want!ā Is the elder that gives Kevin the idea of speaking to the general.
- In I Am Africa he sings ā(with) The meerkatā. A lot of the fandom compares him to being like a meerkat
Same thing, take this photo of him (right) standing next to Andrew Rannells (left)
- Elder āRobertā David
- Given the name Robert by the fandom
- OBC actor: Jason Michael Snow
- Is the first elder to ask if Elder McKinley is okay when he is panicking about the mission president
- āElder Cunningham we must always work in PAIRS. Remember?ā Is the first elder to complain about Arnold and Kevin arguing before being shut down by Elder McKinley
- āLooks like you fell asleep at the bus station!ā (to Kevin after SMHD)
- Elder āBrianā Schrader
- Given the name Brian by the fandom
- OBC actor: Benjamin Schrader
- Please note that he isnāt called Elder Schrader in every performance, he sometimes takes the last name of the actor that plays him since he is named after Benjamin Schrader, his OBC actor
- āAre you an IDIOT?! MORMONS donāt LIE!ā could come across as him being outspoken + rude personality wise
- In I Am Africa he sings āWith the rhinoā
Same thing AGAIN. Have a photo him (left) standing next to Jason Michael Snow (right)
- Elder āTedā Neeley
- Given the name Ted by the fandom
- OBC actor: Kevin Duda
- āI told a lie once when I was twelve, and I had a dream that I went to hell! It was REALLY SPOOKY.ā Had his first hell dream after telling a lie when he was 12
- āYeah, we have to go home!ā āBut the mission president said weāre all as far from the Latter-Day Saints as it gets!ā Seems to be the elder that wants to go home most after being shunned by the mission president
I scoured the internet and found no photos of him at all this is all I got sorry guys
- Elder āElderā Zelder
- Given this name by the fandom, frequently referred to as an alien. I assume this is due to him having fewer lines compared to the other elders. People joke that Elder Zelder is his full name
- OBC actor: Justin Botton
- In I Am Africa he sings ā(we are) A monkey with a bananaā
Here is a photo of the chalk board that lists the pairings of all the elders:
If you canāt read it,
Elder McKinley + Elder Thomas
Elder Zelder + Elder Michaels
Elder Neeley + Elder Schrader
Elder Church + Elder Davis
also itās a good example of Elder Schraderās name changing based on the actor portraying him!!
Thank you for reading my little infodump, I did this mostly for myself but I would be happy to know that other people found this helpful!!
I hate him so much i hope he Dies (he means everything to me and he is in my every thought)
Best WE Elder Price and Cunningham and Nabulungi
Id have to say the current ish cast!!
i am awful at telling whether a cast is broadway or west end so bare with me
I think for Elder Price i have to say Dom Simpson, im probably biased since he was the first elder price i ever saw but i do just love him. he has a nice voice and i love how he portrays kevin
I LOVE Connor Pierson as Elder Cunningham⦠heās so silly and i love him so so much. Again iām biased he was also the first cunningham i saw
Nabulungi is such a hard decision because i donāt think iāve ever seen a performance of her that hasnāt been 10/10 stunning. If someone FORCED me to choose one i would probably say Leanne Robinson, she just has a really pretty voice..
I know you didnāt ask about McKinley but. uhm. i donāt care. I am a stevie webb mckinley truther heās my favourite mckinley out of every other mckinley heās just so silly and has such a good vibe
