The Performance
When do you perform?
Teatro ZinZanni operates all year round. The regular performance schedule is Wednesday through Sunday evenings. Show times for Teatro ZinZanni are 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday through Saturday and 5:30 p.m. on Sunday. Tickets can usually be purchased 8 weeks in advance, with a new week going on sale each Monday.
When should I arrive?
On Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, the lobby opens for drinks at 5:30 p.m.; on Sunday it opens at 4:30 p.m. We encourage guests to arrive early and relax in the lobby or browse in our boutique before the show.
What is the seating arrangement?
You and your guests will be seated restaurant-style at tables and in booths in the antique cabaret tent imported from Belgium just for Teatro ZinZanni. The tent is circular and intimate (it seats around 285). The action of the show takes place all around the restaurant and is clearly visible from all vantage points in the room. Seating will be pre-assigned before you arrive for the performance.
May I ask to sit with another party?
If you would like to be seated with another party who made reservations for the show separately from your party, simply make the request with our Box Office.
You may be asked to share a table or booth with other guests.
What is the dress code?
Abandon your inhibitions and celebrate the evening with festive dress. From boas to bangles, feel free to deck yourself out in whatever dressy garb suits your style, but please no t-shirts, shorts or sneakers. Our ZinZanni Boutique features a variety of accessories ranging from top hats and tiaras to feathered masks, boas, jewelry, and beyond.
May I bring my children?
There is no age requirement to attend the show; however, it is a long night (over three hours) filled with somewhat sophisticated humor. There is no special ticket price or menu for children. Babes in arms will not be comfortable.
May I bring my camera?
For the safety of our performers, personal photography is prohibited in the tent and in the boutique. Photographic services are available on the night of the show. Contact the Merchandise Department at (206) 802-0018.
The Stebens Sisters work their magic.
