I’m currently writing a play where the 7 deadly sins are loosely represented by customers at a New York diner! I’ve been going off of the idea of the characters indulging in the sins rather than being physical embodiments of them!
I have some ideas so far, like Gluttony being a coked up business man trying to do anything and everything all at once, and wrath being two rowdy sports bros who have been arguing for so long they’ve forgotten what they’re arguing about.
One that I’m really bumping up against is Lust. Because I feel like it’s such a typical interpretation for lust be like “A Pretty Woman being Pretty but evil” but that’s like lowkey so boring lol. But I also don’t know what else to do… maybe a flasher or something? Idk lol
This play also takes place in the afterlife! I’ve been calling it “Dante’s Diner”
