Zeitgeist is a retrospective of Zen Zen Zo’s Butoh inspired dance-theatre works since 2000. Drawing from the critically acclaimed productions Unleashed, Those with Lucifer, and most recently Zen Zen Zo’s international collaborations with American band The Dresden Dolls, Zeitgeist is a collection of raw and provocative pieces that reflect “the spirit (Geist) of our times (Zeit)”. This groundbreaking work asks the question, how do we as human beings meet ourselves, each other, and the earth at the turn of the new Millennium? The answer is at times heart-breaking, at others humorous, but ultimately hopeful, as the dancers weave together physical theatre, poetic ritual, burlesque, camp, and comedy in Zen Zen Zo’s hallmark style.
