If We Really Were Witches

Edinburgh 2026

What might’ve happened if real witches dropped in on the witch hunts? Comedy, we’re sure. Summoned by the ghost of a witch hunt victim, real witches Mildred, Agnes and Suds arrive to rescue innocent Obediently Snead and serve up justice of their own. When challenged by The Pricks of Puritanical Piety Guild and Social Club, the witches turn the tide on those who harm others out of ignorance and fear. This riotous four-person comedy makes its way to Edinburgh after premiering in New York City and selling out performances at the Scranton Fringe Festival.

This is an archived listing from the 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. If We Really Were Witches is by Scene 24 Productions, listed under Theatre in the Fringe programme. It plays at Paradise in The Vault, 11 Merchant Street, EH1 2QD, 7 August to 30 August.

The show runs 60 minutes and is suitable for ages 12+. Tickets from £10.
