About the Job

We are seeking a charismatic and expressive actor to play Chef Enzo, a "delusional" and obsessive private chef who treats his domestic cat like a world-renowned Michelin-star food critic. Enzo possesses a fragile ego and a religious devotion to culinary excellence. Key Characteristics: Theatrical Intensity: Must be able to perform mundane tasks—like snapping a plastic cup or plating cat food—with the surgical precision and gravity of a high-stakes cooking competition. +1 Physical Comedy: Expert use of expressive gestures to convey warmth, professional pressure, and deep respect (bordering on fear) for "The Judge" (the cat). +2 Range: Transitions from obsessive polishing and theatrical flair to a vulnerable "tough chef" persona that melts when seeking the cat's approval. +1 Natural Delivery: Needs a neutral, natural tone that can deliver punchy, comedic verbiage with minimal, purposeful inflection to punctuate specific moments. +1 The Performance: Enzo must treat the product lineup—Twin Cups, Pouches, and Bisque Cups—as a sophisticated "tasting menu". The actor will need to maintain a "straight man" intensity while interacting with a stoic, unimpressed white cat, making the cat's quiet authority feel earned.
