About this show
Stuck in a codependent and toxic relationship, Aries drives blindly down a boulevard of broken dreams. His life, a shit storm of dysfunction. Aquarius Rising is a darkly hilarious story about detaching with love to save yourself. Survival means letting things die. Ben Fallaci is a writer and performer who takes laughter very seriously. This is his second Edinburgh Fringe following a successful run of his debut solo-show Show Chair which received four-star reviews, was considered a Highly Recommended Show by Fringe Review and celebrated for 'deftly combining moving self-reflection with uproarious anecdotal humour' (EdFringeReview).
