It's an unsettling mix – serial killing and song – but the music serves to heighten the tension and exaggerate the emotional detachment of antihero Patrick Bateman, the high-flying Manhattanite who is also a psychopathic murderer.
A strong cast is headed up by ex-Doctor Who star Matt Smith stars as Bateman, directed by Goold himself, with set design is by Es Devlin.
The show runs until 25 January 2014. Tickets range from £10 to £45 and can be booked via the theatre's website, almeida.co.uk or by calling 020 7359 4404.
