About the Job

**Need improv skills. Think "Funny or Die." Blunt, sarcastic, emotionally available in spite of himself. Dave is rough around the edges and uses humor to cut tension and avoid overthinking, and he’s unapologetically comfortable being flawed. Dave is instinct-driven, affectionate, and occasionally inappropriate, but his emotional responses are honest and unfiltered. In contrast to Michael, Dave trusts lived experience over theory and laughs when things get uncomfortable. He is the audience’s pressure valve. Tone reference: Dry, observational, “guy” energy with sharp timing.
