About Matthew Amendt
Born and raised in the coal mining country of Western Pennsylvania, Matthew cut his teeth training and performing, in the US and abroad, with the famed Guthrie Theater out of Minneapolis, appearing in 12 productions including the world premieres of THE GREAT GATSBY as Nick Carraway and Robert Bly's PEER GYNT alongside Mark Rylance, the international tour of DEATH OF A SALESMAN, and the American Premiere of Brian Friehl's THE HOME PLACE as the villainous Con Doherty. Making his NY debut in 2009 as the title role in HENRY V, the NY Times described him as "a charismatic, skillful actor with a clarion baritone who gives the production a magnetic focus. Handsome in a Tom Cruise kind of way, the square-jawed and youthful Mr. Amendt is a distinctly cool King Henry." He hasn't looked back since, with appearances in a number of film, television, and theater productions, playing many of the great roles in the classical canon, and working with some incredible names in the industry, including: Mark Rylance, Angela Bassett, Courtney B. Vance, Hunter Foster, Maggie Siff, Jonathan Cake, John Douglas Thompson, Chukwudi Iwuji, Stephen Spinella, Patrick Page, Harriet Harris, Janet McTeer, Kate Hamill and many more. In 2014 Matthew won the prestigious Emery Battis Award for the role of Prince Hal opposite Stacy Keach in HENRY IV PARTS 1 AND 2, in 2018 his work as HAMLET was lauded by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette as one of the Top Three Productions of the Year, and he was named Leading Man of the Year. Off-Broadway, he shared a Lortel Nomination for best ensemble in THE MISANTHROPE, worked with Sir Michael Boyd on an acclaimed production of TAMBURLAINE at Theatre for a New Audience, and chewed up fellow artists as DRACULA at Classic Stage Company, all leading to his Broadway debut in BERNHARDT/HAMLET. Recently, he's pivoted to contemporary work, developing new plays at the La Jolla Playhouse, alongside Independent Film.
