A musical-comedy based on alleged murderer Luigi Mangione is set to debut in San Francisco this summer, KRON4 out of San Francisco first reported.
“Luigi the Musical” is being sold as a “story of love, murder and hash browns” according to the press release and will open June 4 at the Taylor Street Theater.
Last week, Mangione pleaded not guilty to federal murder charges in the execution-style assassination of UnitedHealthCare CEO Brian Thompson. Prosecutors formally declared their intent to seek the death penalty if convicted.
The performance is said to feature other well-known recently incarcerated figures such as accused sex trafficker Sean “Diddy” Combs and convicted crypto-bundler Sam Bankman-Fried. The show is being marketed as a “wildly irreverent, razor-sharp comedy that imagines the true story of Luigi Mangione, the alleged corporate assassin turned accidental folk hero.”
