Gimme a Sign!
Welcome to Bailey Swilley's hilarious ghost tour, Gimme a Sign!, full of spellbinding life lessons on family expectations, grief, and growing up.
About Gimme a Sign!
Haunted tampons, magical p*ss play and soul-searching at Costco: according to comedian Bailey Swilley, nothing is too “woo-woo” when it comes to dealing with death. Welcome to Bailey’s hilarious ghost tour, Gimme a Sign!, full of spellbinding life lessons on family expectations, grief, and growing up. In this vulnerable yet irreverent solo comedy, she shares how she survived the darkest time in her life—the unexpected passing of her father—through an obsession with looking for signs from the great beyond. Gimme a Sign! is a raw, deeply personal, and often silly piece that explores the unanswered questions that loss often leaves us with.
Venue: Greenside (Fern Studio), 22 – 24 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ
