From the killer barber of “Sweeny Todd,” to Stephen Sondheim’s “Assassins,” musicals have long dealt with morbid subject matter. Now a musical based on Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old man accused of gunning down the CEO of a healthcare company in cold blood, is on its way to San Francisco.
“Luigi the Musical,” billed as “A story of love, murder and hash browns,” is due to open in June at the Taylor Street Theatre, formerly the Exit Theatre.
The show is described as a “wildly irreverent, razor-sharp comedy that imagines the true story of Luigi Mangione, the alleged corporate assassin turned accidental folk hero.” The film features other famous characters, including convicted crypto-fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried, and former rap mogul, turned accused sex trafficker Sean “Diddy” Combs.
Mangione, who was arrested as the prime suspect in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, shares the same real-life prison as Bankman-Fried and Combs. Although it is unlikely he is actually cellmates with either, in the show, Mangione’s character navigates “friendship, justice, and the absurdity of viral fame,” with the two by his said.
“Bold, campy, and unafraid, Luigi: the Musical is both laugh-out-loud funny and surprisingly thoughtful,” according to the play’s production company. “If you like your comedy smart and your show tunes with a criminal record, Luigi is your new favorite felony.”
The show is directed by Nova Bradford and features original music and lyrics by Arielle Johnson. Johnson, Bradford, and co-writer Caleb Zeringue, are all involved in the local SF comedy scene. Andre’ Margatini, another Bay Area comic, is also credited as a co-writer on the show.

This is giving a wink to nutcases to murder others. I don’t like HMOs but murdering people involved with them? No.
The commies’ ratchet only goes more violent, not less. When they rationalize killing one American, they’ll eventually rationalize killing millions in a pogrom.
SICK! DISGUSTING! DEMONIC!!
I really feel for the family of the murder victim. They need prayers to get them thru the daily worship of their father/husband/brother/uncle.
The Left is hate. Never forget.
A musical about Luigi MANGIONE must have a score based on the flugelhorn.
Pure evil!
Snort.
Sodomy always leads to incurable militarism and violence. Which explains why God always destroys these societies.
Bang bang, I shot hm down!
They are celebrating the fact that he murdered an insurance executive. The left is a death cult.
wondering what will transpire in the future when everybody else realizes that the road this guy took to excise another human being for HIS personal reasons goes two ways. remember friends, “Those who promote violence for any end shouldn’t be surprised when violence finds them” L.Star
Deep State is totally cool with murder in the service of the State.
Luigi shot him dead IN THE BACK from about 20 feet.
Some hero indeed.
And gay. Very, very gay.
No matter what you do on the stage
Keep it light, keep it bright, keep it gay!
Whether it’s murder, mayhem or rage
Don’t complain, it’s a pain
Keep it gay!
Sexual perversion corrupts the soul to its very core producing evil rotten fruits.
This is obscene.
Good one.
