Seeking:

Josh Cohen: Male, 20-40s, bari-tenor; an empathetic, kind, and lovable mess; is broke and perpetually single, but a good person who does the right thing at any cost; he gets robbed, rejected, and is faced with an enormous moral dilemma which tests the limits of his goodwill; strong baritone/tenor with great comic timing; any and all instrument ability is very helpful, but not necessary. Any Ethnicity.

Narrator Josh (Swing Information Only): Male, 20-40s, tenor; engaging, and charming in a geeky cool way; he never leaves the stage, telling the story of what happened to him a year ago as it gets played out by another character; part troubadour, part stand-up comic, has a strong tenor voice, and an ease talking to an audience; while it would be nice for Narrator Josh and Josh to have a physical resemblance, it is not necessary; their comedic rapport is far more important. Good rhythm guitar skills required; other instrument ability a plus but not required. Any Ethnicity.

Woman 1: Female, 20-40s, a comic tour de force: someone great with varied characterizations, who can also be real; strong singing voice required, and musical instrument ability helpful but not required. Any Ethnicity.

Woman 2: Female, 20-40s, a rockstar role; a strong singer (comfortable with rock); many comic characters with numerous featured vocals; instrument ability a major plus but not required. Any Ethnicity.

Man 1: Male, 30-50s, hilarious; roles include a gruff landlord, Josh’s curmudgeonly father and a disgruntled middle manager; musical instrument ability a major plus but not required. Any Ethnicity.
