Zoe Karatzovalis, 25, has realised her childhood dream of joining The Wiggles, after years of performing as a professional dancer.
Growing up in Port Lincoln, South Australia, Zoe and her brother Kosta watched The Wiggles daily, sparking her passion for dance.
“I always dreamed of one day joining The Wiggles on stage,” she told ABC News.
After training at Sydney’s Brent Street Performing Arts School, Zoe pursued dance but faced challenges during the 2020 lockdown. She opened a dance studio, Infinite Abilities Performing Arts, for people of all abilities, including those on the autism spectrum.
In 2023, Zoe auditioned for The Wiggles and was selected to perform as Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, and Henry the Octopus.
In December 2024, Zoe’s dream came true when she made her debut as Zoe Wiggle during a concert in Newcastle.
“Being able to say I’ve been a Yellow Wiggle is surreal,” she said.
Reflecting on her journey, Zoe encouraged others: “Trust the process, the universe is working in your favour.”
