Teatro ZinZanni Turns 20

Teatro ZinZanni announces its twentieth year as a pioneer of its own brand of theatrical, circus arts entertainment. Teatro ZinZanni is a whirlwind of international cirque, comedy, and cabaret served up with a scrumptious multi-course feast and elegant libations inside a gorgeous antique, mirrored spiegeltent. In an era of exceptional city growth and expansion that has been the catalyst for much change in the local artistic community, Teatro ZinZanni and its leadership look back on two decades of cultivating an original arts brand that eliminates the 'fourth wall,' showcases international artistic talents in a way not previously seen in the United States, and despite a series of bumps in the road, perseveres and continually brings together audiences from near and far to indulge in the shared experience of love, chaos, and dinner.
