Ayoade Bamgboye: Swings and Roundabouts

Ayoade Bamgboye: Swings and Roundabouts

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2025

The much-anticipated debut show about suffering (and smiling) from Nigerian stand-up Ayoade Bamgboye. Burdened by the gift of sight, a primeval awareness that something is not quite right, and almost three accents, she'll ask life's big questions and provide absolutely no answers. Born in London, raised in Lagos, sacked in Budapest, the poor woman has been there and done that – and to what end? Swings and Roundabouts is about going nowhere fast, being too British to stop apologising, and too Nigerian to stop shouting. As seen in her own Channel 4 Playground.
