Luigi is the inspiration behind a musical comedy coming to the Taylor Street Theatre in San Francisco, and the play’s entire run is already sold out. DUH! We would sell our hair on Temu for a ticket to this! Are you kidding me!?
The musical’s official synopsis says the production is “A wildly irreverent, razor-sharp comedy that imagines the true story of Luigi Mangione, the alleged corporate assassin turned accidental folk hero … Luigi navigates friendship, justice, and the absurdity of viral fame.”
Do any of our readers have tickets?
Maybe a case of “too soon”, but there are quite a few musicals based on real murderers such as Leopold and Loeb (Thrill Me) and Lizzie Borden (Lizzie). Even Chicago is inspired by a real murder.
I do think it may be a bit too recent for the subject of a musical though considering even if you don’t feel much compassion for the victim, he did have a family who are still probably grieving.
Disgusting
Yes, but will it show butt stuff?
