This splendid antique spiegeltent, named Le Palais Nostalgique, is one of the few remaining hand-crafted traveling tents built in the early 1920s in Europe. Owned by a Belgian family, Le Palais Nostalgique came to the United States for the first time in October 1998 for Teatro ZinZanni. Originally these spiegeltents served as wine tasting pavilions and dance halls, traveling to thousands of European locales for over 70 years.
The heated and air-conditioned spiegeltent doesn't require any metal hardware for assemblage. However, the lobby was built specifically for Teatro ZinZanni and there are restrooms, a coat check, and a full bar. Leonardo's Boombox, the musical contraption in the lobby, was created specially for Teatro ZinZanni by Seattle artist Trimpin.
