Breakdown

This contract is a “mini tour” which means the actors will workshop the show in a studio, and then perform the show at various local venues.

ALL ACTORS MUST BE AVAILABLE TO AUDITION, REHEARSE, AND TRAVEL FROM NYC.

All actors are signs as Actor/ASMs. Actor/ASMs are required to unload/load, setup and/or strike the set. No single piece of scenery shall exceed such proportions of height or weight as to make it impossible to be carried reasonably by two members of the company.

ALL CHARACTERS MUST SING! This is a new musical based on the popular children's' book series, Pete the Cat. Looking for versatile actors with comedic flair. Seeking a diverse company. Ethnic performers encouraged to submit.

SEEKING:

PETE
18+ male actor to play the cat who never loses his cool, Pete. A mellow, free agent, older-brother type, who is always super groovy. Rock Tenor. All ethnicities encouraged to submit.

JIMMY
18+ male actor to play 7-year-old Jimmy Biddle. A brainy, super-organized kid whose world is turned upside down by the arrival of the messy, groovy cat. Comic, naturally cheerful, but a little closed-minded and prone to panic. Tenor. All ethnicities encouraged to submit.

OLIVE
18+ female actor to play Jimmy’s 5-year-old sister, Olive Biddle. Energetic, weird, and delightful. Totally open-minded and hilariously allergic to cats. Also plays various other comic roles. Can belt like a rock star when necessary. All ethnicities encouraged to submit.

MOM
18+ female actor to play Sandy Biddle, a type-A mom who learns to relax. Also plays multiple other comic roles, including an overdramatic art teacher and a hip blues-playing Toad. Vocally versatile: includes an operatic aria, but also a grumpy toad’s blues. All ethnicities encouraged to submit.
