Aidan Dominic Roche is an actor, writer and comedian. He just got back from performing his show “Why Did I Crush My Balls? And Other Tales From the Generation of Too Much,” at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The play received critical and audience acclaim, landing him a five star review and a “Best Individual Performance” nomination from The Derek Awards. Clips of the play went viral on Instagram and TikTok, netting him over 700k views across a dozen videos.
Born in Detroit, MI and raised in Norfolk, Virginia, Aidan’s first theatrical role was at 11 years old, as a stagehand in his Mom’s production of the “Vagina Monologues.” As good a start as any. And soon after being exposed to Adult Swim’s "The Eric Andre Show" at the ripe, influenceable age of 13, Aidan was committed to making art that is darkly funny, socially challenging, and eye snatching (not catching, snatching). Aidan’s art has led him to create endless new works, and to perform stand-up to everyone from record holding Olympians to lonely men on a Thursday night.
