Tell me a little about Teatro ZinZanni . Our main event is part circus , part cabaret and always magical . It is a three-hour whirlwind of international cirque , comedy and cabaret all served up with a multicourse feast and elegant libations . Our production is ever-evolving and constantly changing . We offer evening performances at least four nights a week , year-round .
What special things does Teatro ZinZanni offer for groups ? We are able to offer groups discounted tickets , advanced access to dates , preferred seating and special rates on merchandise and photography . We also work directly with our group clients to offer a custom experience .
What ’ s coming up later this year ? Next up is “ Joker ’ s Wild ,” running through September 2017 . It is set in a casino , and a mysterious gambler threatens to break the bank . With a pit boss you ’ d better not cross , a crew of juggling card dealers , acrobatic mimes and high-flying love birds , it ’ s sure to be the hottest ticket in town !
Where did the name Teatro ZinZanni come from ? From our owner and founder , Norm Langill . It loosely translates to “ King of Comedy .”
What new destination is at the top of your personal travel list ?
I am planning a trip to Italy for the summer of 2017 . I can ’ t wait to dive into the rich history , fine wines and amazing cuisine !
What is your go-to movie ? My favorite is “ Fried Green Tomatoes .”

What lead to you to start Unlimited Croatia last year ? I spent four years as director of the Croatian National Tourism Office in New York promoting Croatia to the U . S . clients and travel agents . Before that I worked in Croatia ’ s travel industry for 20 years , so starting [ the company ] was a logical continuation of what I enjoy and what I do the best .
Talk about what travelers experience when they go on one of your tours to Croatia . Unlimited Croatia is a boutique travel company specializing in diverse , authentic itineraries with a “ live like a local ” feel . They are all custom-made and offer unique and unforgettable experiences that showcase the unexpected colors and flavors of the destinations .
What are a couple of your favorite things in Croatia that you like showing off to guests ? The region of Istria , where you can experience a dog truffle hunt , try wild asparagus and taste some of the world ’ s best olive oils . Also , Plitvice Lakes , one of the greatest wonders of the world with its 16 cascading lakes ; the Old City of Dubrovnik ; the island of Hvar with its medieval village ; and cooking classes in Konavle to learn how to prepare some local dishes .
Speaking of food , what ’ s the most unusual thing you ’ ve ever eaten ? Frogs , grilled and wrapped in prosciutto , which are a traditional Croatian specialty from Dalmatia ’ s hinterland .
Someone offered it to me a long time ago , but I was hesitant to try it . Once I did , I fell in love with it , and it became my favorite dish .
