The United Dancers of Zuga is a collective of dancers and choreographers that was conceived in 1999 by the young active dancemakers Tiina Mölder, Kaja Kann and Jarmo Karing. ZUGA is the only company in Estonia that has consistently and regularly been producing dance performances for children. For ZUGA, children and adults are equal partners that share a world and a living space. ZUGA’s performances have won theatre and dance awards, and they have toured in Estonia and abroad (Finland, the USA, Germany, Lithuania, Latvia, the Netherlands, Palestine, Sweden, Russia, Romania, Croatia, Poland, England, China) with their performances.
