Description Zen Zen Zo?s first production was entitled Never the Elephant - a loose translation of ?Zen Zen Zo?. This 40-minute work constituted part of Lynne Bradley?s honours thesis at the University of Queensland on Butoh, and was showcased for the first time on 29 October, 1992. Never the Elephant was Butoh at its rawest. The response to this show, Brisbane?s first Butoh, was overwhelmingly positive, and encouraged Lynne to keep experimenting in this area.
