He's been performing with his theater company, Dream Tale Puppets, for children on Cape Cod area using various hand-crafted puppets to tell the stories like Rumpelstiltskin and Cinderella. But he doesn’t always perform for a large audience, and some shows get canceled. But numbers are not Zuzanski's measure of success.
