About the show
Untold Stories: Modern Mime Tales is a 45-minute solo show by mime artist Silent Rocco, presented by Ines Wurth Presents at Beside as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Without any set, props or words, Silent Rocco transforms the stage into a dreamscape where emotions are tangible, objects hold secrets and the impossible feels real. The show poses vivid questions — what if you could wear emotions like masks, or gift your heartbeat to someone else? — and answers them through pure physical performance. Suitable for ages 8 and above.
Why see this show?
A wordless show that takes you somewhere words can't always reach. Silent Rocco's mime creates worlds and moments from nothing — an increasingly rare and quietly powerful form of theatrical storytelling.
