A musical based off of Luigi Mangione, the suspect accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, will premiere in San Francisco in June.
A satirical play based on UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect Luigi Mangione will debut next month in San Francisco.
« Luigi: The Musical » is a comedy show centered on Mangione, 26, the Ivy League graduate accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50, in December outside a Hilton hotel in New York City.
The show’s website calls it a « campy, surreal, funny » and « emotionally honest » take on the cultural fascination surrounding Mangione’s case that imagines him « sharing a prison with real-life inmates Sam Bankman-Fried and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. »
On the play’s Instagram account, the actor playing Mangione is shown singing a line about the events that led up to his arrest that goes, « flash those pearly whites, there were cameras there that night, and that’s what let the police take me in.
