​Zinnia Nomura is a circus artist and former ballet dancer who has been performing professionally since 2014. She decided to run away to the circus and trained at the Carampa School in Madrid and in independent courses at Stockholm University/SKH, as well as continuously educating herself through coaching and workshops. She loves to share her art at theatre and circus festivals, events, kids' shows, cabarets and dinner shows. In her time on stages around Germany and Europe, she has played a dancing sausage, an aerial sloth, a showgirl, a video-game avatar and a glowing caterpillar. Besides performing, she also teaches and produces events.

„Zinnia is a dedicated artist who is highly collaborative. She is always eager to listen to different perspectives and open to new ideas. It was a pleasure to collaborate with her and program her work at our festival.“
-Antonia Cvitan Vuletić, co-director Split Calling - Festival of contemporary circus and outdoor arts, Croatia (Cirkus Kolektiv)
„Zinnia is a brilliant circus performer. She was our guest at Zentral in 2024 with her enchanting show “Sloth” and not only delighted us, but also the audience across all age groups. Working with her was wonderfully uncomplicated and I'm already looking forward to her next visit to us in Zurich.“
-Josef Mohamed, Kurator Zentralbühnen- Zürcher Theaterspektakel
​
„We booked Zinnia as an acrobat with trapeze and contortion for our Christmas dinner show “Mythos Babelsberg 2022”. Flexible in two ways: Zinnia has adapted her performances in music and choreography to the cinematic show theme without discussion and her shows have enchanted thousands of dinner show visitors. She is very ambitious, rehearses before every show day and works on the perfect number until the very end. We thank Zinnia for her professional collaboration and would book her again and again.”
-Alexander Kauf, event management, Filmpark Babelsberg
