Teatro ZinZanni is a circus dinner theater that began in the neighborhood of Lower Queen Anne in Seattle, Washington.〔 It has since expanded to a site on the waterfront at Pier 29 on The Embarcadero in San Francisco, California. Teatro ZinZanni was created by Norman Langill,〔 and was once described as "the Moulin Rouge meets Cirque du Soleil."〔 The show is a blend of European cabaret, circus arts, fine dining,〔 and vaudeville performed in a Belgian ''spiegeltent'' (mirror tent).〔〔 Until mid-2011 the show was produced by the Seattle-based non-profit events company, One Reel. Teatro Zinzanni is now an independent company. Teatro ZinZanni began in Seattle in October 1998 for an eight-week run and ended up playing to sold-out houses until it closed on December 31, 1999. It then moved its operation to San Francisco, opening there in March 2000. In 2002, it re-opened a permanent operation in Seattle's Belltown district. The operation has since moved to Seattle's theatre district on Mercer Street across from Seattle Center. Teatro ZinZanni's San Francisco location closed its operation on December 31, 2011, due to the city's preparation for the America's Cup, but has plan to reopen at another location on the Embarcadero after fund-raising is complete.〔 The many performers in Teatro ZinZanni productions have included Joan Baez,〔 Yamil Borges, Martha Davis of the rock group The Motels,〔 Michael Davis, El Vez,〔 Frank Ferrante,〔〔 Geoff Hoyle,〔 Sally Kellerman,〔〔 Liliane Montevecchi,〔 Maria Muldaur,〔〔 Melanie Stace,〔 Puddles Pity Party〔http://zinzanni.com/seattle/shows/puddles-pity-party/〕 and Ann Wilson of the rock group Heart.〔 Teatro ZinZanni has produced two CDs:〔 ''The Divas,''〔 with Baez, Montevecchi, Kellerman, Thelma Houston and others, and ''Omnium,'' a collaboration of TZ Maestro Norm Durkee with Martha Davis. In addition to Teatro ZinZanni's evening dinner shows, Teatro ZinZanni has introduced a variety of special projects including brunches,〔 late-night cabarets (Cabaret Lunatique, Mezzo Lunatico〔), a concert series (Mirror Tent Music), children's/family programming (Big Top Rock, "Zirkus Fantazmo"〔) and offers year-round education opportunities including day camps.〔〔〔 ==See also== * List of dinner theaters 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Teatro ZinZanni」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
