Zelda
Zelda theatre company was created from the collaboration of a group of professionals who wanted to pool their experience in a single artistic and entrepreneurial project dedicated to the production, management and organization of theatrical and cultural events.
Our proposals are characterized by a particularly dynamic, original and engaging approach, while also reflecting on important social issues and civil commitment.
In a sector that has historically suffered from a lack of enforcement of social security rules and the absence of fiscal transparency, Zelda guarantees proper contracts and respect for artists and workers’ employment rights.
VISION
We believe that art and creativity are essential aspects of human beings and constitute a key opportunity for reflection, growth and engagement between individuals and communities. We are working towards a future which is responsible, fair, sustainable, and welcoming.
MISSION
Caring for people and relationships is one of our core values. Our work aims to help individuals develop their emotional intelligence, ability to process and solve problems, and adaptability and lateral thinking: skills typical in the Creative Universe which are valuable both in the workplace and society. We want to help establish solid social bonds and promote regional regeneration. We create tailor-made projects, enhancing their content through the beauty of artistic language and constant interaction with our partners. We are proud to be a benchmark for applying artistic creation processes and theatrical techniques not only to cultural and artistic areas but to every field in which we operate, from education to training, businesses to scientific popularization, involving partners, students, and spectators in creative processes. That is why we are constantly looking for original languages, innovative processes, and effective solutions to enable us to grow and evolve along with our partners.
Our aim is to contribute to the civil and cultural renewal process at national and European level, maintaining our characteristic entrepreneurial approach and making ourselves available to networks and partnerships.
