From left to right, Edith Hulings, 22, Emily Westfall, 22, Gina Pierotti, 27, and Allison Haraminau, 30, were excited to be off on their different ways, knowing that they had each secured their tickets to see The Book of Mormon.

The rush to buy tickets for The Book of Mormon online nearly crashed the Denver Center for the Performing Arts servers and the show sold-out in five hours. But for those willing to brave the January cold, the wait for the highly anticipated show -- of which Denver is the first stop since showing on Broadway -- was worth it.
