Gimme a Sign! is a solo storytelling comedy performed by Bailey Swilley at Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025. Running from August 1 to 23 (excluding August 10 and 17), the show is staged at the Fern Studio, Greenside, George Street, starting daily at 15:05 with a duration of about one hour.
The show blends humor with personal reflection as Bailey shares her journey through grief after the unexpected death of her father, exploring themes of family expectations, loss, and the search for signs from the spirit world. The piece includes stories about haunted tampons, magical spells, and life lessons, framed as a kind of whimsical ghost tour filled with millennial nostalgia and raw honesty. Light comedy is certainly at the heart of the show. Paul Levy discussed the show, ghosts and the journey to the Fringe.
Bailey Swilley is the writer, performer, and producer of the show, which touches on the complexities of mixed-race identity, cultural legacy, and the courage to break free from expectations.
