The musical adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' controversial 1991 novel American Psycho, about the arrogant Wall Street broker by day and sexually deranged serial killer by night, will make its U.S. debut this season, Second Stage Theatre announced Monday.
The off-Broadway production will begin previews in February 2015 and will officially open in March. Exact dates have not yet been set.
The show has been adapted by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, with music and lyrics by Duncan Sheik.
