American Psycho is an Almeida Theatre and Headlong co-production in association withDavid Johnson and Jesse Singer for Act 4 Entertainment by special arrangement with Edward R Pressman.

Wildly controversial on publication, American Psycho is now acknowledged as one of the great literary satires. In the narcissistic yuppie psychopath Patrick Bateman, writer Bret Easton Ellis created one of the most iconic antiheroes of the 20th century.
