Overview

If you're looking for Comedy then you're come to the right place. I have over 17 years in the stand-up comedy business and have toured all over.
You can catch me on the season 9 of Last Comic Standing on NBC, Gotham Live on Axs Tv, and Grace Of Jake the Movie- coming out this fall. I have been performing for 10 years and love doing it. I will perform 15 minutes-1 hour of hilarious material. I will ensure that crowd will have a great time. I'm also a pharmacy technician, so I believe Laughter Is The Best Medicine and there has never been a recall on that. I just love to see people having a good time and not stressing over things that are beyond their control.
Book me and lets laugh!!

Great experience

Ambrose was easy to communicate with prior to the event. He even accommodated last minute changes in timing. His set was hilarious and he even incorporated a few jokes about our guests. He performed at our corporate Holiday party and our entire team had a great time. I would definitely recommend hiring Ambrose for your next event! Thanks Ambrose!

Outstanding performance,

Ambrose was asked to be clean, and he delivered the side splitting funny doing just that. Really brought in the entire room to his performance. Great job.

What to expect

Whether it's for a clean show or formal, Ambrose will put on a good show. You can expect everyone to have have a good time and explode with laughter and most importantly have a good time.

About

July 22, 2015 he showcased his talent on NBC for Last Comic Standing. Kennan Ivory Wayans said he is like a breath of fresh air and reminds him of a country Chris Rock, Ellen tweeted (you killed it on LCS). Jones made it to the to 40 of Semifinalists.

During the 2nd audition of LCS at Gotham Comedy Club in NYC, he was approached by the owner of the club and ask to film a show called Gotham Live which is a tv show filmed lived at the club and aired on Axs T.V.

A laconic, self deprecating comedian, Ambrose embarked his comedy career in Memphis, TN. Being originally from Chicago, IL makes no sense at all, but he still found a way to turn his southern humor and unique point of view into a brand. Within only 8 years of stand-up, Jones has been a full-time feature act for 3 years. He has already performed at some of the top comedy venues in the business. Comedy Off Broadway, Richmond Funny bone, West Palm Beach Improv, Stardome, Zanies, Comedy House, Vb Funny bone, just to name a few.

Being that person everyone wants to be around to have a good time, testing his skills on stage was a perfect combination. He was terminated from Ups as package driver because of bringing packages back to the building undelivered just so he can be on time to do 5 minutes during the open mic at the local comedy club.

Since then Comedian Ambrose Jones remains on the road spreading laughter which is the best medicine because it has never been a recall on it.

Additional booking notes
