This show belongs to the FRINGE WORLD Festival 2026 season. This season is now over.

A colourful kids’ show banner featuring a wizard in a big green hat and red goggles peering into a bubbling cauldron. A black cat, a frog, and a wooden sign reading “Winni Wizard and Her Magical Smells” appear against a bright purple-and-green background, with the tagline “Comedy for kids & families, ages 4+.”
A performer dressed as a whimsical witch in a floppy green hat and long blue-and-leopard-print robes gestures dramatically onstage in front of a backdrop that reads “Ye Olde Shoppe Magical Smells,” with framed portraits and a small cauldron nearby.
A witch character in a tall green hat and round red glasses stands onstage with two children, all peering closely at a bubbling potion on a small table covered in a blue sequin cloth, against red curtain backdrops.

Winni Wizard and Her Magical Smells

The Wacky Wizard goes West with her hilarious hijinx for 4-400 year olds. Smooshed with even more enchantment, calamities and laughs that make you fart. 

Having finally earned her ‘Real-Life Wizard Badge’, Winni must face her biggest challenge yet; running her family’s magic shop. But it’s proving trickier than expected…. Join Winni on her winky wonky adventure as she must undo what she always does. 

This high energy, interactive whirlwind is packed with songs, dances, and jokes funnier than your Dad's. Perfect for the whole family, even your stinky goblin brother.

With sell outs in Melbourne and Sydney, don't miss the Wacky Wizard in the West!
