About the Job

Josh uses humor as armor. He’s quick with jokes, sarcasm, and commentary — especially when things get uncomfortable. He doesn’t like emotional heaviness, not because he doesn’t care, but because he doesn’t know what to do with it. When reality hits, Josh freezes. He’s not heartless — he’s overwhelmed. This character lives in the space between laughter and fear, and the performance should feel natural, effortless, and lived-in.
