Hi there. As you may have gathered, my name is Kaylee Mattoon. 

 

I'm a SAG Eligible actor based in Los Angeles.

 

I went to Emerson College, where I received a BFA in Theatre & Performance. 

 

Since then I've continued my training at institutions such as

The Upright Citizens Brigade, Second City, and The BGB Studio.

​

I am a multifaceted creative with a passion for comedic storytelling and character work. In my spare time, I produce original comedic content and revise my original feature-length screenplay. 

​

My most recent project of note is David Fincher's Netflix feature, Mank, starring Gary Oldman and Amanda Seyfried.

When did it all start? I was cast as Viola in a condensed version of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night when I was in the second grade...and I memorized the whole script. Didn't pay much. Didn't pay at all, actually. A great first gig nonetheless.

 

When will it all end? What a dark question! I'm going to assume you were referring to my acting career. It won't end. I'm hooked. I'll always be acting, writing, and creating in some capacity.

While I've been in Los Angeles for a few years now, I originally hail from the magical land that is South Jersey, just outside of an even more magical land - Philly. I was raised by two New Yorkers who taught me to work hard and have both a thick skin and a great sense of humor.

You sure do have a lot of questions. You're lucky I'm not shy.

​

I believe stories are what always have and always will bring us together. The arts are the backbone of our society. What do we turn to when we need a pick-me-up? Where do we go when we need to escape? Or when we need a good laugh? How do we make a good day even better? Books, movies, TV, music, photography, paintings, etc. They all tell a story - and those stories are what keep us going.
