Wait what it was someone's job to tell me I forgot to get tickets
How is this not the Onion
Tbh a few years ago this would be crazy, but I guess the line between whats nottheonion and what it is is moving everyday
Nothing in here is nottheonion anymore. It's just another politics community.
I thought it was kinda crazy that this story is becoming a musical, didn't intend to be political.
Oooh boy! I can't wait to talk about this on r/theatre!
Shame its about after his arrest. Would have been cool to see the backstory of tragedy that lead him to commit such a heroic act.
allegedly
He didn’t shoot anybody, he was drinking beers and playing Madden with me that day. The only shots he fired were touchdown passes.
What the fuck. This is so wild
I thought so too at first, but then got to this part and learned it's not the first time:
Luigi Mangione is getting the Roxie Hart treatment.
The accused murderer will be the subject of a new musical set to premiere next month in San Francisco, titled Luigi: The Musical.
Also appearing as characters in the musical will be two of Mangione’s fellow inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center - Sean "Diddy" Combs and Sam Bankman-Fried.
The play is already sold out for its entire run.
The premiere comes 99 years after Hart - a fictional character based on accused murderer Beulah Annan - made her Broadway debut in Chicago.
Annan, like Hart, was ultimately acquitted of murder.
Wait, was that supposed to make this less wild?
This doesn't seem fun at all :(
On the contrary, it's gonna be fun seeing bootlickers melt down.
I do enjoy that. It’s so fucking easy to do
That's a good point
Chicago (2002)
He had it comin'
That's great but can we not give paedophiles the light of day.. Crypto scammers, CEO killers sure, but not criminals.
