Ben Lorenz

“Olivia Jampol and Ben Lorenz were charm personified as Meg and Adam...”

“Sarah Gancher’s tale of Budapest youths searching for cultural identity [The Place We Built] is a smart and nuanced exploration of Eastern European political upheaval and Jewish tradition. Crafted with authenticity and heart, The Flea continues to prove that their company showcases one of the most consistently talented group of theatre artists today.”

“Lorenz delivers a studied, subtle performance whose energy waxes and wanes along with Katurian’s spirit, which now flags in despair, now flares up in anger. Some of the play’s most affecting moments occur in exchanges between Lorenz and Cressler, whose fraternal bond is utterly convincing. ”

“The good guys were well-developed characters, but it was really the men in suits who stood out. Ben Lorenz made the act of dying from a stomach wound into an art; with no film tricks to rely on, he did an admirable job of conveying unbearable pain—for almost an hour. ”

“the best performance comes from Ben Lorenz as the guy from Trader Joe’s, who delivers more than stuffed peppers, if you know what I mean”
