We’re thrilled to announce that, with the support of Applause, we’ve officially begun the Research & Development of our brand-new production Zig Zag!
Zig Zag! is a light-hearted, non-verbal dance-theatre duet where two performers turn simple objects — dozens of wooden reels — into a living landscape of choices. The reels roll, stack and scatter as obstacles, tools and meeting points. As lines are drawn and redrawn, they move from chaos to calm, connection to division, learning when to pause, repair and try again.
Designed for families and mixed-age crowds (recommended 5+), the show blends crisp physical comedy, crafted object manipulations, and moments of partner acrobatics. It reads clearly at a distance with bold images, rhythmic pacing and audience-friendly beats: quick “this/that” prompts, echo-claps and blink-and-smile reveals. Portable, low/no-power and relaxed in tone, Zig Zag! suits village greens, high streets and school playgrounds. It’s a feel-good invitation to collaborate — to build, unbuild and build again — and to notice how small choices can shift the whole picture.
Currently in R&D and gearing up for festival previews in 2026, to find out more, please contact us at hello@autindt.co.uk
