Lorenzo Thornton
Location: Sacramento, CA
Born and raised in California, Robert Lorenzo Thornton has been doing standup comedy for about 22years now, and is one of the best-undiscovered talents in the business. Born in Northern California and raised by a single mom, he was exposed to music, pro-wrestling, 80's & 90's genre of entertainment, with a special interest in martial arts, dancing and theater.
​
Performing has been in his blood since the day he was born, from school plays, talent shows, to dancing on a local television teen dance show in Sacramento. His first stand up performance wasn't even in a comedy club; it was in Northern California Junior High and High Schools. Starting at the age of 18 with a local chapter in Sacramento called Friday Night Live promoting awareness to teens against doing drugs, drinking and driving.
After several years of this, developing his act, he ventured comedy clubs. His raw-dawg, in your face, take no prisoners style makes you sit up and take notice. At the same time being very multi-dimensional, it is hard to put him in a category. He delivers an unpredictable performance. You will never see him coming that is why he is the . . .
