TMI Hollywood Sketch Actors
Location: Los Angeles
Type: Theater
TMI is looking for talented male and female sketch actors between the ages of 20 and 35 of any ethnic background.
You must have extensive stage experience (student shows are not considered experience) as well as strong comedic timing and improvisational skills. Having the ability to do celebrity impressions is a plus. We do occasionally add music and dance into the show, so having the ability to sing and dance is also desirable.
TMI is a sketch comedy show in the style of Saturday Night Live. Actors will be required to play a variety of roles in each show. Because the show parodies news stories from entertainment and pop culture,, many of these roles may be as well known people like Bill and Hillary Clinton, Donald and Melania Trump, Kim Kardashian, Melissa McCarthy, Justin Beiber, Miley Cyrus, Kanye West, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Dr. Phil, Oprah Winfrey and others. You may also be playing everyday parts like lawyers, doctors,politicians etc. It all depends on what news stories are trending that given week.
The most important thing to remember is that this show is created in one week. As an actor, you get the script on Friday and you rehearse and perform the show in front of an audience 2 days later. This is a very specialized skill that is not right for every actor. You must have the ability to be a quick learner and be able to improvise when something goes amiss (which it will).
