Inspired by the iconic psychological horror of American Psycho, our first of three covers puts Naomi in a world where fashion meets fear.

As she steps into the DC Universe in Clayface, Ackie reflects on her unconventional career journey and the lessons that have kept her grounded. As she puts it, “I've learnt since then to hold things lightly.”

The play brings together Greta (Golden Globe nominee Marilu Henner), a longtime ACLU donor on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, and Tanner (Emmy nominee Shannon Purser), the young representative sent to secure a substantial contribution. While initially united by progressive values, their conversation quickly exposes a widening generational and ideological rift.

Henner and Purser deliver performances that keep an ideological debate grounded in recognizable human emotion.
