SHARING SPACE WITH AMANDA BRUTON
Amanda Bruton often appears as the woman you think you know on the small screen. You may have seen her saying some words in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Amazon), Orange is the New Black (Netflix), and Billions (Showtime) among others. Look for her on the current season of NBC’s Manifest. Amanda is also known for her performance as Grandma Addams in the International Tour of The Addams Family Musical directed by Jerry Zaks.
She is the creator of sketch character Connie “Big Ballz” Bumbaloni. You can find Connie on YouTube in Confessions by Connie, Connie in Quarantine, and now the monthly advice-column series Questions with Connie.
Clutch is excited to share her Summer Vacation Special Episode and hope you'll enjoy as much as we do! Click below to watch.
MORE OF AMANDA'S AWESOMENESS!
Amanda also wrote/produced/directed the award winning comedic short Nevertheless, She Auditioned, which premiered at HBO's Women in Comedy Festival. Back when we were communing in theaters more regularly, Amanda brought her solo show Still UnCastable to the Laurie Beechman Theatre and the Duplex. The show explores the concept of uncastability in the entertainment industry and in life. Through personal anecdotes, parody, sketch comedy, and song, Still UnCastable comments on Hollywood and society at large in the era of #timesup and sounds the call for women to own their power and embrace their uncastability.
Amanda holds a BFA in Drama from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. She is a proud member of SAG-AFTRA and Actor's Equity. These days you can find her doing dramatic readings of the Vermont Country Store catalog on Instagram, voiceover work from her closet, or hanging out with her wife Kristen and daughter Frankie.
