Kids in Adelaide review | ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Magic, comedy, and total chaos – Wacky Wizardry Goes Wrong is an absolute riot from start to finish. This is not your average magic show. Josh Staley flips the script with tricks that almost don’t work, a whole lot of audience involvement, and plenty of laughs along the way.
The best part? Almost every child in the audience got a chance to jump on stage, and watching them absolutely lose it in fits of giggles was hands-down the highlight. Staley’s quick wit and boundless energy keep the whole thing moving at a cracking pace, no drawn-out tricks, no dull moments, just pure fun.
The magic itself is impressive, but it’s the comedy that really sets this show apart. The running gag of Staley’s tricks “failing” (with a few rogue rubber chickens thrown in for good measure) had kids screaming with laughter. Parents, you won’t be able to help but laugh along too.
Fast-paced, interactive, and packed with surprises, this one’s a winner for families. If your kids love magic and a good belly laugh, grab a ticket – you won’t regret it! Plus, you’ll never look at a rubber chicken the same way again.
