WHAT A BRILLIANT, WELL WRITTEN SHOW! I am sad I saw it on the last day, so I couldn't scream this from the rooftop! It was 1st class storytelling at it's finest. Bailey knows how to pull in an audience and keep them engaged with her every word the whole time. But maybe it's great that I saw it on the last day - my bf just flew in the day before and I had bought us tickets to go. He might kill me for saying this, but he's been going through some stuff and he felt like the show healed him. He literally said to me afterward that it was probably one of the "most important hours of his life" (and I've been with him for like 8 months, so glad I am apparently just minced meat to him!) (jk!). Anyway, if Bailey ever comes back with this show, or you can catch her anywhere else with it, go see it! It's truly so beautifully written and performed. Bravo! 5/5 stars (though my opinion means nothing!)

A powerful, heartfelt experience of loss and finding ones self pride from internal and external forces. whether willing or not (good riddance casper!). The themes and message was personally close to home and strangely therapeutic. All due to bailey's strong storytelling and warmth. Do not miss this gem!

Being in the room with Bailey feels like meeting a new friend who just happens to also be a funny, touching, skilled storyteller. She creates a sense of comfort - then just when you think you know where she's going - she offers new layers of perspective. Go join Bailey in her little room before it's too late! You'll see - she really is a star.

A very well written show that dives into nuanced emotional details of loss, grief, and moving on. Bailey is an engaging performer and storyteller that will bring you to ride the emotional roller coaster for an hour that you don't even realize the hour has passed.

Bailey Swilley!!! We had to make an effort to get to this show as it bumped up against an appointment, but it was SO worth it. What a touching, funny and well-tied-together piece of comedic storytelling. Bailey had us laughing and crying and questioning our own capacity to feel and know things beyond our 5 senses. Charming, fun, very well paced without feeling over-rehearsed. Don't miss it!!

Loved it. Went with my daughter and I'm 3 years past the age my dad got to so it was relatable!

The show was very good. Lots of heart and touching on some universal themes of loss and coping. Bailey is a charming and very open performer, inviting the audience to follow her in her journey.
Well worth the viewing!

From a flyer at Underbelly George Sq., last night to being delighted I got to the show this morning. Bailey takes you on a personal ghost tour of her own, it's original, thought provoking, observational and insightful. You feel the emotion and release with her great humour, proof if ever there was, that laughter is a great cure, even for curing ghostly, and ghastly stuff in life. Go see... [that's 3 dots btw ;)]
