I'm just imagining that Zipper is some unknown character from outside of my town who has dressed up. I can't imagine Phyllis would put up with all of the requisite singing/dancing and such, even with the mumble comments, just doesn't fit in with Phyllis even with her playing an act. I know Zipper is playing a role but under that I don't feel any of the personalities of other characters in the game (Phyllis, Isabelle, Nook etc).
