About the event

The Breakouts makes its New York Comedy Festival debut, bringing back the spirit of a popular Carolines on Broadway tradition that gave some of comedy’s most promising young talent a chance to step into the spotlight and headline their very own show. Originally known as the Breakout Artist Comedy Series, the series became a stepping stone for emerging comedians ready to take their careers to the next level. The Breakouts will put a new generation of standout stand-ups front and center. It’s a unique lineup of fresh voices, rising stars, and comedians you may be seeing a lot more of.
