American Psycho is still months away from its Broadway debut, but that doesn't mean you have to wait that long for a taste of Duncan Sheik's new music. The show's official website is featuring clips from some of the songs, including: "Selling Out," "You Are What You Wear," "Not a Common Man," "Killing Spree," and "This Is Not an Exit."

The American premiere ofAmerican Psycho will begin performances on Thursday, March 24th, 2016 at The Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre (236 West 45th Street). The Opening date and additional casting will be announced shortly.

Directed by Rupert Goold (King Charles III, Macbeth), American Psycho has music and lyrics by Tony Award-winner Duncan Sheik, making this his first new show to come to Broadway since his Tony Award-winning Spring Awakening. The show has a book by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Spiderman: Turn off the Dark, "Glee") and is based on the novel by Bret Easton Ellis. Lynne Page (La Cage Aux Folles, A Little Night Music) is the choreographer. The production will star Benjamin Walker (Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Bloody BloodyAndrew Jackson) as Patrick Bateman.

Living the high life in 1980s Manhattan, Patrick Bateman has it all - looks, money, style and status. He and his entourage buy the most expensive designer clothes, eat at the most exclusive restaurants and party at the hottest clubs. But privately, Patrick indulges in another kind of transgression. And people - including those closest to him - keep disappearing.

AMERICAN PSYCHO had its world premiere at the Almeida Theatre in London from December 3rd, 2013 through February 1st, 2014. That sold-out production was presented by The Almeida Theatre and Headlong in association with Act 4 Entertainment (David Johnson & Jesse Singer).
