International Escape Artist Lord Nil Will Perform Off-Broadway In 7 DEADLY SINS

Sometimes, we all need a little escapism, but Lord Nil takes that a bit literally. The acclaimed international escape artist will perform a world-premier limited engagement of Lord Nil: 7 Deadly Sins at Stage 42. Performances begin on July 21, with opening night on July 27, and conclude on Aug. 31. 

The show will feature a cast of 10 men and women, performing a theatrical escape experience rooted in ancient symbolism, raw physical danger, and psychological suspense. The show runs 70 minutes — and you’ll be on the edge of your seat for every one. Everything audiences will see on stage is real, according to producer Rainer Hackl. There aren’t safety measures or hidden tricks. 

Lord Nil — a writer, illusionist, and escape artist born in Italy — has traveled through Europe, Australia, and Asia studying language and culture. He made his American TV debut on America’s Got Talent in 2018. At each performance, he’ll be taunted by a razor sharp ace, whirring circular saws, hot grease, and chained water tanks. What scares him, though? Failure. 

“Escape is not guaranteed. If I fail to make an escape… the consequences are unimaginable,” Lord Nil said in a statement. 

Lord Nil: 7 Deadly Sins runs at Stage 42 at 422 W 42nd St. in New York City. For tickets and more information, visit here.
