PHI THEODOROS
aka the UKULELE DREAM GIRL
As an Arts Worker events Phi understands the transformative power of the creative. As an artist, she understands the power of stories and shares these with music to open conversations and challenge social stigma.
Phi fell in love with the performing arts at a very young age. In 2004, aged 13, she was a founding drama student at Ink Pot Arts in the Adelaide Hills and has since worked with them as a board member, actor, producer and event designer.
With Ink Pot, she made her Adelaide Fringe debut in 2006 in Commedia show Servant of Two Masters. In 2009 Phi made her cabaret debut alongside Anya Anastasia with the BirdWizdom Collective during the Feast Festival in Enthusiasm, Please! This collaboration continued across many Adelaide and Cabaret Fringe Festival’s.
Since 2013 Phi has created, produced and performed in five cabaret shows that celebrate the power of stories.
The Ukulele Dream Girl, the stage persona of Phi Theodoros, made her cabaret debut in 2019. She is a storyteller who weaves music and poetry together to share stories & shift stigmas. Our Ukulele Dream Girl is armed with a ukulele and a heart filled with compassion waiting to take you on a journey of unexpected expression.

Featured Shows
When We Lived Through Our Screens
A tribute to her power to mobilise people through music & art
This poetic journey is more than your typical love story…
A show about expectations, self-empowerment,
90s singalongs and plant friends
“This audience was clearly affected, exhibiting tears, gasps, laughter and intangible and subjectively observed personal emotions as they found points of connection.”
All Over Adelaide
“’She enthusiastically explores her what could be traumatic in another artist’s hands with an inner light & feather soft touch, so much so that you can’t but help feel her joy in being alive! “
The Lonely Archaeologist
“Imparting along the way some wisdom and thoughts on self-empowerment, on managing all the wild expectations modern society throws on us, and the key message that soothingly weaved its a way through the show was about discovering a purposeful sense of community.”
