She also mentioned that `` I did a terrible audition '' for her favorite TV series, Home & Away. At the end of 2012 she moved to Germany and, while living in Berlin, frequently travels around the world with her band Zap, which she describes as `` a crazy mixture of swing, jazz music, performance and weird percussion '' consisting of `` a washboard, megaphone, ukulele, rubber chicken, some tap shoes, a trumpet, two kangaroos and some tzatziki '', including her role as `` sequined showgirl meets sideshow superstar with a bottomless bag of tricks -- whether it be dancing, juggling or throwing confetti ''. While in Australia, Miller co-starred in writer - director Laura Smith 's 2012 short film The Outback Motel and, in 2015, played one of two female characters in writer - director Berton Pierce 's Irish - German science fiction road film Adventurados.
