ABOUT US
Applause Break Entertainment is a comedy-focused agency where performers come first. Founded by comedians, for comedians, our mission is to make sure artists feel supported, respected, and set up for success — and never like just another name on our roster.
We understand the unique, and sometimes frustrating, realities of building a career in stand-up, and the importance of having someone in your corner who communicates clearly and consistently. If you reach out, you’ll hear back.
We specialize in representing experienced stand-up comedians for cruise ship contracts. Cruise comedy is a distinct lane within the industry, requiring preparation, professionalism, and reliability. Our current placements are focused primarily with Carnival Cruise Line, and we work closely with comedians who are ready for that environment and understand the expectations that come with it.

JASON MILLER is a veteran talent manager with over 15 years of experience booking and developing stand-up comedians for comedy clubs, theaters, corporate events, and festivals nationwide. His approach has always been artist-first, grounded in clear communication and practical career development.
In recent years, Jason has focused his efforts on cruise ship comedy representation, recognizing it as one of the most consistent and professional platforms for experienced stand-up comedians. Cruise work requires preparation, professionalism, and reliability — and Jason works closely with comedians who are ready for that environment.
Through Applause Break Entertainment, Jason connects experienced comedians with cruise programming teams, with current placements focused primarily on Carnival Cruise Line. His strength lies in understanding how cruise scheduling, submissions, and expectations operate in practice, and guiding performers accordingly.
Above all, Jason believes representation should be steady, transparent, and responsive. Long-term working relationships are built on communication — and that remains the foundation of ABE.
