Springtime for Osama (Updated)

The 60th Edinburgh Festival Fringe is going to try do for Osama what Mel Brooks did for Hitler. Make him entertaining and funny.

According to the festival’s website, "Osama the Musical" is a:

Sensational new musical comedy set to incite violent applause and a new cult following. Featuring insightful satirical sequences including ‘I Wanna Be Like Osama’. The West shall not be won (again) so long as we have a high-kicking chorus line!

Incredibly bad taste or incredibly funny? That will probably depend on the execution.
