Jennifer Damiano is know to theater geeks all around for her roles in Spring Awakening, Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark and Next to Normal. Now, Damiano is getting ready to officially add another role to impressive resume. Damiano is playing Jean, Patrick Bateman's (Ben Walker) secretary. The role was played by Chloë Sevigny in 2000 film adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’ 1991 novel.
Recently, Jennifer Damiano spoke to Broadway World about her character, saying:
“Well she's in love with him- or rather, she's in love with who she thinks he is. What I've decided is, everything about Patrick... right before he makes that leap, that jump into being a serial killer, where he crosses over and it goes too far... I think right before that, everything about him is so great. He's fun and funny and witty and charming, and I think that if you didn't know him, you would think that he really really is a sweet, sensitive person, because he is very insecure. I think that it's fun that my character gets to see him as that person because she has no idea. And it's difficult because you want to make it clear to the audience that she doesn't know, because otherwise there's some other of masochism involved, which I don't think is part of the story at all.”
