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. 5’9”-6’2”

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. 5’10”-6’2”

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. 5’-5’4”

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. 5’4”-5’8”

DAD
18+ male actor to play Arthur Biddle. A silly, nervous dad who secretly longs to rock out. Also plays multiple other comic roles, including a guitar-playing platypus, a mean teacher, and a groovy surfer. Vocally versatile, strong falsetto a plus. All ethnicities encouraged to submit. 5’10”-6’2”
