Luigi: The Musical imagines a scenario in which Luigi Mangione, the alleged killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, convicted crypto-currency fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried and disgraced music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, shared a cell at the real-world detention centre they all once actually inhabited. Creators and cast members Caleb Zeringue and André Margatini explain why they wrote the play and what they hope to say about our current moment.
