Point Cook families looking for a theatre outing during the remaining school holidays have several choices in nearby Werribee. Fam Bam LIVE continues at Wyndham Cultural Centre with children's comedy, circus, a pop tribute show and a local concert band celebration.
The program also includes a free passport trail through Werribee City Centre. That gives families a separate activity to consider alongside a performance, or as an outing of its own.

These are published session details, rather than a statement that seats remain available. Follow the booking link on each council listing to check the current position before travelling from Point Cook.
The choices vary substantially in length and audience. A short afternoon comedy show may suit a different family routine from an evening tribute concert, so use the age guidance and running time as well as the title when deciding.
Short comedy shows for younger audiences
Mr Snotbottom is listed for children aged five and over, with a running time of 50 minutes and no interval. The published ticket price is $15.
The show centres on deliberately silly, gross-out comedy and songs. Families who know that this style appeals to their children have a fairly clear description to work with; those seeking a quiet storytelling session should read the program carefully before choosing it.
The following afternoon, Coach Mon's Comedy Games combines comedy, music and playful sporting challenges. The organiser describes activities such as eyebrow push-ups and a slow-motion race, with a medal included in the show's format.
It is recommended for children aged four and over and their families. The listed duration is also 50 minutes without an interval, with tickets at $15. Check the booking conditions for younger siblings rather than assuming the age recommendation determines whether they need a ticket.
Both council listings flag possible smoke, haze and strobe effects. Parents who need specific information about a child's comfort or access requirements should speak with the box office before booking.
Circus, music and an evening tribute
Wolfgang in the Stars takes a fictional Mozart into space through circus, puppetry, projections and music. The Circa production is created by Yaron Lifschitz and the ensemble, and its story includes a bear companion.
The council recommends it for ages three and over. Tickets are listed at $18, and the performance lasts 55 minutes without an interval. Its evening start is worth considering separately from the age recommendation when planning a visit with young children.
Reputation: The Ultimate Taylor Swift Show is a tribute performance featuring Ella and Sienna with their band. Taylor Swift herself is not appearing.
The listing describes an all-ages show with tickets at $30 and a 110-minute running time without an interval. That makes it a longer commitment than the children's comedy sessions, even though both appear within the same festival program.
The council flags possible smoke, haze and strobe lighting for these productions too. Read the individual listing and ask the venue about any effect that matters to your group, rather than relying on the festival's general family label.
A local band's anniversary closes the program
Werribee Concert Band's anniversary performance is scheduled for Sunday afternoon. The official tourism event listing describes a celebration of the band's 40 years.
The published prices are $25 full price, $15 concession and free admission for children under twelve. Confirm the booking process for a child's free place when arranging seats for the rest of the family.
The performance is listed as suitable for all ages, with a 115-minute duration including an interval. It also carries a warning about sudden loud sounds, which may be useful for anyone comparing it with the other shows.
This is a chance to choose a local ensemble performance at the end of the holiday program. It is a different kind of outing from the touring comedy and circus options earlier in the week.
The free passport adventure
The Fam Bam LIVE Passport Adventure is a self-guided activity around Werribee City Centre. It runs through 4 October, with passports collected at Wyndham Cultural Centre.
Families can complete the trail in one visit or return across several days. Completed passports are taken back to the cultural centre to claim the applicable reward, subject to availability.
Check the centre's opening hours before making the journey solely to collect or return a passport. A performance's start time should not be used as a substitute for confirming when the collection point is available.
The trail also links with participating city-centre traders. Treat any meal offer as a separate purchase with its own conditions, and check those conditions directly with the business before ordering.
