For over 26 years, Teatro ZinZanni has welcomed audiences to intimately staged productions featuring over-the-top theatrics paired with lavish food and drink. While each Teatro ZinZanni is unique, the recipe is consistent: a dash of circus, a hint of Vaudeville, a whisper of cabaret, finished with Teatro ZinZanni’s signature, not-so-secret ingredient: joy. Founded in Seattle in 1998, Teatro ZinZanni’s productions unify the immeasurable talents from the best-of cirque, music, comedy, magic, and entertainment. Each Teatro ZinZanni performance is distinctly interactive and playful: to attend Teatro ZinZanni is to be a part of Teatro ZinZanni. And while attendees are encouraged to wear formal wear, they are also encouraged to embrace their wild, informal tendencies. As of today, Teatro ZinZanni has entertained over 2 million guests and has staged over 120 distinctive original productions - with a majority of the productions presented within an antique Belgian mirror tent, the Spiegeltent. In 2000, Teatro ZinZanni expanded to San Francisco and in July 2019, Teatro ZinZanni opened in the heart of Chicago’s Theater District. A venerable institution that continually flips the script, Teatro ZinZanni is synonymous with a perfect night out - a sentiment shared by USA Today, The New York Times, The Chicago Tribune, The Los Angeles Times, and nearly every Seattle media outlet.
