BAILEY SWILLEY’S GIMME A SIGN! MAKES ITS
2024 EDFRINGE DEBUT 
A storytelling comedy show about family, grief and ghosts

New York City-based writer and performer Bailey Swilley brings her one-hour GIMME A SIGN! to the 2024 Edinburgh Festival Fringe at Three Sisters in the Wee Room for a limited run.

GIMME A SIGN! is an autobiographical comedy written and performed by Bailey Swilley, based on the aftermath of her father’s unexpected passing and the strange but funny antics that ensued after. The solo show combines standup and storytelling and explores family dynamics, the stages of grief and the search for ghosts and signs from above. Come for the silly facts about pop culture and celebrities, stay for the surprising path to self-discovery and acceptance. 

“Brought me to tears faster than watching The Notebook. Bailey had such a unique way of bringing laughter and emotions to such an intense moment in time. I felt safe and comfortable with her on the stage, telling intimate personal stories interlaced with some of the smartest jokes I’ve ever seen—but also a burning desire to hug my parents after the show.”
- Esmond Fountain (The Moth)

“Captivating and equal parts heartwarming and funny. You will laugh, you will cry and you will leave with a newfound lease on life. 10 out of 10, would see again!”
- Milly Tamarez (Netflix Is a Joke, NPR)

Bailey has performed earlier iterations of “GIMME A SIGN!” (previously titled “The Pop Culturist’s Guide to Grief”) in New York at the Peoples Improv Theater and The Tank, where it was a recommended pick by The New York Times.
