Drama King

摘要

Zeze came to New York from Rio to pursue a theater career. With a stage name, a handlebar moustache and a boyish countenance that trims 30 years from his 60, he is as theatrical as can be. Today Zeze is among the top florists in New York, and drama and theatricality are intrinsic in his explosive, flamboyant designs that often employ no two flowers alike. He says that his arrangements begin with the text and tone of the sender's message card, which he calls his "script." At the Schodack Landing home he shares with his wife Peggy in upstate New York, Zeze grows much of his own stock for his eponymously named Manhattan shop.
