Talent 1Male28-40 y.o.All ethnicities

Character: Think of Phil Dunphy from Modern Family or Andy Dwyer from Parks and Recreation, goofy, likable and full of imagination, but with solid comedic instincts.

Talent 2Female28-40 y.o.All ethnicities

Think of Kimmy Schmidt from Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt or Gina Linetti from Brooklyn Nine-Nine, offbeat, wildly expressive and unintentionally hilarious. She brings an unexpected intensity to mundane things, and that’s exactly what makes her fun to watch.
