The Hill Cumorah Pageant is an outdoor theatrical production that depicts events from the Book of Mormon, a sacred text of the Latter-day Saint movement. It takes place annually in Palmyra, New York, near the site where Joseph Smith claimed to have found the golden plates, which he translated into the Book of Mormon. The pageant features a large cast of volunteers and includes music, dance, and dramatic reenactments. The pageant typically runs for two weeks each summer and attracts thousands of visitors. It is one of the largest annual outdoor theatrical productions in the United States and serves as a way for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to share its beliefs and history with the public.
