Celebrated fashion designer Petra lives and works in a world of her own making, attended by her devoted assistant, Marlene. When a beautiful young model named Karin enters her orbit, Petra falls obsessively in love — and her carefully constructed reality begins to unravel. Sharp, seductive, and darkly funny, Satter’s fresh staging transforms this cult classic of emotional warfare into a riveting contemporary event.
