You might instantly forget you're actually in Brooklyn as you step off the sidewalk and into Théâtre XIV for the Seven Sins show. Company XIV has transformed its space into a dreamlike paradise inspired by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. The circus, Baroque burlesque dance, and musical performances of Seven Sins are inspired by the fall of humanity and the seven deadly sins, but you'll still feel like you're in paradise as you watch the spectacles unfold.

Seven Sins was Company XIV's newest show from before the pandemic; shortly after its premiere received critical acclaim, the show was forced to close alongside the rest of theatre in March 2020. The company reopened Théâtre XIV in fall 2021 with Nutcracker Rouge, its annual burlesque show based on the classic Christmas tale of the Nutcracker. That show, too, puts a sexy twist on a story people usually experience as a ballet or family show, and has been a holiday date-night favorite since 2013.

There's nothing sinful about treating yourself to a fun night out this spring. Get tickets to Seven Sins in New York on TodayTix now.

What to Watch For

• Company XIV's show isn't the only sin-inspired show this season. A socially distanced outdoor production in the Meatpacking District, Seven Deadly Sins, premiered in summer 2021 and was one of the first in-person shows to open in New York since the pandemic. That show was a collection of seven short plays, each based on one of the sins.
• Seven Sins off Broadway isn't technically an immersive show, but it's definitely interactive — the performances aren't limited to the stage. Look up and you might see an aeralist or circus artist doing a routine above the audience, or look around to see dancers moving up and down the aisles. You might even interact with the performers here and there, as they double as the ushers who bring you to your seat and the waiters that serve you drinks.
• In addition to the performances, themed cocktails and snacks are on offer as part of the show experience. The show is called Seven Sins, after all, so there's no better show to give into gluttony a little and indulge in a treat or two.
