About Swanni
Wiki with a Wengeance: Isles of Silly is a free character comedy show by Swanni, performed at The Lounge as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Wiki, like the old-timey mapmakers and modern Wikis before her, has set out to name weird specks of land, thought, and wonder — naming obscure islands after emotions, yoga poses, or the Beatles. The show is a personal and universal journey through a mind map of strange knowledge, running for 50 minutes with audience participation and a quiz. Suitable for audiences aged 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A character comedy show built around the human impulse to name and catalogue things — silly in the best sense, and genuinely curious. The quiz element and audience participation make it interactive without being uncomfortable.
