Why is the entire article an advertisement rather than anything about the person who died?

They don’t even mention his name - just “a rigger”

They never release the person's name until enough time has passed for their family to be notified first.

If the family hasn’t even been notified, they certainly shouldn’t be reporting on it yet. Especially as an advertisement for an upcoming production

It is dumb that they added a synopsis of the show. But this is how journalism works, the event is reported on as soon as it happens with the subject staying unnamed, then they report the name later on.
