Ben Target's honest and funny show about the give and take of palliative care is beautifully written and performed.
Ben Target is a critically-acclaimed performance artist and multi award-winning comedian (yawn), but in 2020 he gave this up to become the live-in carer for an irascible octogenarian prankster. A life-affirming story about death, conveyed through the popular mediums of storytelling, servitude to the audience and live carpentry: a combination not seen on the world stage since Nazareth (circa 30AD). Winner: Scotsman Fringe First 2023. 'A joyous celebration of what it means to love deeply' ***** (Fest). 'A knockout piece of theatre... deeply affecting, tender and funny' ***** (List). ***** (British Theatre Guide). **** (Guardian). **** (Scotsman).
