“A mix between acrobatics, balancing, poetry, and humor, the antics of the Zania Company move the audience.”

– La Nouvelle République Loir-et-Cher

The Compagnie Zania borrows its name from Zanni, a traditional character from the commedia dell'arte. The company's distinctive feature is to seek theater in the circus and circus in the theater. Zania images a singular and humanistic style of circus dramaturgy with different levels of readings and resonance to reach a wider audience.
