A London comedy musical spoofing last year's infamous Gwyneth Paltrow Utah court case is making its American debut in Park City.

Elder Kearon is the first apostle in over a century to have a middle name and not use it in official contexts within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Elder Patrick Kearon doesn’t use a middle initial, which makes him the first Latter-day Saint apostle in 125 years to make that choice. Elder Ulisses Soares joined the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in 2018, and he doesn’t use an initial. The difference is that Elder Soares doesn’t have a middle name.

Next week The Park Record is sending me overseas to cover the retelling of Utah’s greatest export in recent memory — the Gwyneth Paltrow trial. I’ll be traveling to Pleasance Theatre, a small performance venue in the heart of London. There, the “harbingers of queer chaos” production company Awkward Productions will be debuting their latest show, “Gwyneth Goes Skiing.”
