This is one of those things that can either be really dope or go terribly wrong. Not really sure which way this one is leaning yet. According to The Urban Daily, the enigma that is known as 2Pac will once again be resurrected, this time on stage in the form of a comical musical. The Upright Citizens Brigade, a pretty well known group of improve jokers and overall smart asses are responsible for the making of 2Pac: 2Pac: The Musical (no, the two 2Pacs are not a typo). The comedy troup is billing the production as “a parody jukebox musical that would make 2pac roll over in his grave if he were dead.”

The team has been using the ever popular nosey net tool Twitter to bring a little buzz to their stage play with some questionable tweets to say the least. In an effort to drum up some asses in the seats, the UCB sent both of these tweets:

2pacthemusical: Tupac is grabbing his glock and heading to UCB tonight @ 930pm

2pacthemusical: To all the single mothers on welfare. We’ve opened a shelter for you on 26th and 8th ave under Gristedes. You are appreciated and loved.

Hmmm. Not really sure what to make of this. But if this will help you make up your mind on if you plan to buy a ticket or boycott, here is a teaser that the troupe put together. Peep.
