Teatro ZinZanni
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Teatro ZinZanni is a circus dinner theatre begun in Seattle, Washington's Belltown district and since expanded on San Francisco's historic waterfront, at Pier 29 on The Embarcadero.
Teatro ZinZanni is performed in a Belgian "spiegeltent" (mirror tent) created by Norman Langill. It is produced by One Reel, a non-profit performing arts company based in Seattle. The show is a blend of European cabaret, circus arts, and vaudeville.
