The PumpHouse: BadJelly the Witch

Badjelly the Witch bursts delightfully onto the stage in this hilarious, slightly spooky, and wildly silly whānau theatre adventure. When Tim and Rose set off to rescue their missing cow Lucy, they wander deep into an enchanted forest and straight into the clutches of the baddest witch of all. Adapted for stage by Alannah O’Sullivan from Spike Milligan’s beloved classic, this fast-paced production is packed with outrageous characters, big laughs, and imaginative storytelling that children love and parents and grandparents will fondly remember.

Perfect for the school holidays, this is quality live theatre designed to spark joy, creativity, and shared family experiences. StageAntics presents the story with energy, heart, and a strong commitment to accessible, high-quality theatre for young audiences in Aotearoa. Bring the whānau, bring a school or holiday group, and step into the enchanted forest for an adventure full of magic, mischief, and mayhem you’ll be talking about long after the curtain falls.
