The Girl from Greece are pleased to present…Our Big Fat Greek Café Tour
Following their sold-out theatrical debut “The Girl from Greece: A Tribute to Nana Mouskouri” at Queensland Performing Arts Centre in 2023, and becoming the first to bring Greco Retro Jazz to the Brisbane Jazz Club in 2025, this new show continues their heartfelt celebration of Hellenic culture through story and song.
Audiences are taken on a nostalgic journey through the Golden Era of Greek cafés in Australia – the bustling meeting places that became the heart of communities across the country. Through a mix tape of Greek music, jazz and timeless favourites and joined by a stellar band including some of Queensland’s best jazz and world musicians, this production captures the soundtrack of a generation.
Sharing stories from their family’s iconic establishments, the Elite Café and Feros & Feros Café, The Girl from Greece delivers laughter, tears and unforgettable melodies, honouring the cafés and personalities who fed and nurtured generations of Australians.
Featuring some of Australia's best musicians this show promises lots of kefi, tears and laughter.
