Beyond Perfection, a new musical set in a dystopian New York City, makes its Off-Broadway debut at the AMT Theater August 14–17 as part of the 2025 Broadway Bound Theatre Festival, and is presented under an Equity Approved Showcase.
Directed by Dorea Slagle, the story follows Ryan and Kate James as their picture-perfect lives unravel under big-tech CEO and ruler Katrina Hope, and her AI creation- Aiden.
