Today we’d like to introduce you to Deven Zimmer. Them and their team share their story with us below:
What started as a hobby in high school, bloomed into a surprising business venture for co-founders, Deven Zimmer and Brooke Hanson. They took their experience and love for performing and turned them into experiences that could be enjoyed by the San Antonio community.
The company originally started as a performance duo that offered booking services, workshops, and flow products and later transitioned into a full-time production company dedicated to bringing a unique theatrical cirque experience to Texas.
The transition began when we were brainstorming in our parents’ living rooms during the time we had between our full-time classes and part-time jobs. We were blown away by the support we had from local artists who shared a similar dream and by our community.
After our first live production’s success, we are now gearing up for our second live production this October.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Our road has been far from smooth. The rockiest road of ice creams, if you will.
When transitioning into the idea of production, we had $20 in our account, limited experience in production, and a very small team (just us). For just about every step forward, we took 3 steps back.
One of the biggest challenges we faced was not only making sure things were done, but making sure things were done great to ensure an amazing experience for our guests and team members.
