David Rockwell displays the seven deadly sins in shop windows
American architect David Rockwell has designed the sets for an outdoor theatre series in New York composed of short plays based on the seven deadly sins and performed in empty shop windows.
Called Seven Deadly Sins, the seven 10-minute-long plays are each by a different playwright. All but one of the plays takes place in a series of empty shopfront windows in Manhattan's Meatpacking District.
Rockwell's seven sets represent the seven deadly sins
"As an architect and New Yorker, the pandemic has made it clear that the city without people feels like an empty theater," Rockwell told Dezeen. "A production such as The Seven Deadly Sins that takes place right on the street creates that kind of interactive frisson that makes New York one of the greatest cities in the world," he added.
"It celebrates that spirit of gathering outside and transforms the streets into a playhouse."
