Andrea has built a multifaceted career, writing, producing, acting, and directing numerous award-winning short films and commercials. She has also produced stand-up shows in New York and Los Angeles while serving as the executive producer and star of a comedy documentary series on Nickelodeon for two seasons. Currently, she stars as Lucy, the inept boss, in all seasons of Greg Daniels’ Upload on Amazon.
Jenny is a founding member of the award-winning theatre company The Civilians, known for its critically acclaimed productions at prestigious venues such as BAM in New York City, Théâtre de la Ville in Paris, the Soho Theatre in London, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art. She recently completed a yearlong directing mentorship with Shondaland in Los Angeles and was honoured as Best Female Creator by AMC Networks at Stareable for her web series “If I'm Alive Next Week”, which Vulture recently named one of the best comedy shorts of 2024.
When discussing their decision to join Cutter, the duo shared, “We’ve known Hillary for years, and she’s been a great source of advice as we started directing. When the time came to get signed, we met with her and were immediately drawn to her energy and positivity. We’re thrilled to join a female-driven company and collaborate to break into a predominantly male space.”
Hillary Cutter, founder and executive producer of Cutter Entertainment, says, "I've been a fan of Andrea and Jenny for years, and when they told me they had teamed up to launch their commercial directing careers, I was ecstatic. I love how focused and on-point their creative brand is. It's so clear what type of work they should be directing. Working with them this past summer on a digital content series for Boehringer Ingelheim only cemented my excitement for their future with Cutter. Comedy is all about collaboration and moving quickly, and what makes Andrea and Jenny stand out is that they're both writers. That skill set brings so much value to the table. We're excited to have them as the first comedy duo on our roster, and we're confident they'll play a big role in helping us build out this side of the business with fresh talent and new clients."
The duo has written for and directed an incredible roster of talent including Joyce Van Patten, Peter Friedman, Richard Kind, Matt Maher, John Gemberling, Stephen Park, Quincy Tyler Bernstine, and Eugene Cordero. They have also created content for major networks and platforms like Nickelodeon, WEtv, Food Network, ABC Digital, PBS, and FremantleMedia. Their award-winning narrative work has been showcased at prestigious festivals nationwide, including Tribeca, Woodstock, Nashville, and Nantucket.
