About the Show

Comic cares for mischievous uncle, navigating life's absurdities with humor and carpentry.

The absurdities of life becomes a remarkable journey in "LORENZO," a unique tale of intergenerational roommates grappling with their individual challenges.

In this extraordinary narrative, multi-award-winning stand-up comedian Ben Target makes a courageous decision to relinquish his thriving career and become the live-in caretaker for his beloved elderly uncle, Lorenzo. As frustrations surface in the dynamics between Ben and the mischievous octogenarian, the story unfolds as a life-affirming exploration of death, caregiving, and grief, presented with both bravery and lightheartedness.

Target's signature witty and energetic style guides the narrative through the unconventional combination of storytelling and live carpentry, a rare blend not witnessed on the world stage since Nazareth (circa 30 AD).
