Artie Brennan (Co-Creator) is a NYC born actor, comedian, & writer. He has played the bagpipes on The Today Show, Dj'd to crowds in the thousands, jumped from a plane, and swam with sharks twice! His love of comedy landed him at The Upright Citizens Brigade where he studied improv & sketch comedy with several masters including Matt Walsh (Veep) and Ian Roberts (Key & Peele), two of the founding members.
As a writer/director Artie's project "Gowanus Galapagos", a nature mockumentary, was a top ten pick in National Geographic's Wild to Inspire. The comedy was picked up by Brooklyn On Demand. His short comedic film "Snuffalafaghost: Hip Hop's First Stylist" won the Audience Choice Award at the 2016 Inaugural Hip Hop
Film Festival in NYC.
Artie studied drama at NYU and sketch writing at The PIT. He can be seen in several award winning independent feature films as well as commercials for clients like Optimum Cable, ESPN, GMA, & Kiehl's. On your TV or iPad, he has appeared on Showtime's "The Affair", Nat Geo's "American Genius", Comedy Central's "The Onion Sports Dome", and as the lead in BRICTV's comedy series "Dad Day". Artie was nominated for Best Actor for his lead role in the dark comedy "In For Business" at the Maverick Movie Awards and won Best Actor at the Best Shorts Awards.
Live and filmed sketch comedy is where he is most at home, working on every major comedy stage in NYC. He has performed live sketch with A2Z, The Grape Dutches of York, Hot Buffett, UNISEX, and Old School Sketch Show. Artie performed improv in over 100 shows with The Red Tie Mafia in a dank, stank basement of a bar on Manhattan's west side. He produced and performed in the full-length interactive comedic play Enchantment Park 3D/4D (a first of its kind) for its run at The People's Improv Theater.
