1969

John Lawrence "Jack" Canfora (born April 6, 1969) is an American playwright, actor, musician and teacher whose works include Place Setting, Jericho and Poetic License.

1990

His career as a writer began in the mid-1990s as a sketch writer for various New York-based sketch groups.

1995

After receiving his dramatic training at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, he began his career as an actor in regional theater, working mostly in Shakespearean roles such as Mercutio and Macbeth as well appearing in the title roles in Hamlet, Gardner McKay's Toyer: An Unavoidable Tragedy, and in a 1995 production of "Variations on the Death of Trotsky".

Canfora has also performed on television for the educational series TV411.

He also wrote for the show.

1999

After his sketch group "The Waiting Room" disbanded in 1999, he turned to playwriting, beginning with one-act comedies which were performed regionally in different parts of the United States.

2005

In September, 2005, his play Place Setting was read in Los Angeles, directed by veteran film director Howard Deutch and starring Jon Cryer and Steven Weber.

In March 2005, his play A World with Snow was read publicly in New York City and starred Austin Pendleton.

2007

In June 2007, Canfora performed in Place Setting at the New Jersey Repertory Company.

The play received largely positive reviews.

Talkinbroadway.com said that while the play wasn't especially original, it did "provide witty, involving and thought provoking entertainment."

It also praised his performance in the role of Greg.

Curtainup.com wrote "Canfora, who skillfully embraces both acting and writing, may not leave any of the characters unscarred or unscathed, but we are certainly kept alert and empathetic to their quandaries."

"The Newark Star-Ledger called the play "funny and fascinating," adding that "Canfora has wonderfully incisive wit". The Newark Star Ledger nominated "Place Setting" for "Best Play" for 2007-2008 along with plays by Edward Albee, Theresa Rebeck, and Elaine May.

2008

In July, 2008, "Place Setting" had a public reading at the Soho Theatre in London, UK.

In September, 2008, the New Jersey Repertory Company produced his play Poetic License (also known as A World with Snow) to largely mixed reviews.

The New York Times wrote of the play and its characters "All their relationships are clearly drawn, and their dialogue is at once educated, revealing and lively. Part of the fascination of the play's first hour lies simply in the caliber of their verbal interaction. But the other part of it lies in the surprise twists Mr. Canfora has cooked up (which make discussion of the play's specifics difficult without revealing too much). The two he lets fly in the first act are both stunners. " However, it contends that the second act fell flat and urged Canfora to revise the second act, writing that in this incarnation the play was only a "glorious tease."

2009

His third play, Jericho, had a public staged reading at The Rattlestick Theatre in New York City on May 18, 2009.

The Newark Star Ledger wrote "Canfora's dialogue shows a true writer at work."

Its subsequent productions were at the Phoenix Theatre in Indianapolis in late October, 2011.

The Indianapolis Star wrote that "The twisting journey to Jericho is worth it."

It received generally strong reviews.

The New York Post wrote" It's hard to imagine that a crackling drama could revolve around a poet laureate's career. But Jack Canfora's “Poetic License” manages to render a tale of artistic ambition and hidden secrets with the breathlessness of a well-paced thriller."

The Associated Press and Time Out New York offered similar praise, and the New York Times, while criticizing the plot's central premise, described it as "smartly written."

The Florida Studio Theatre production opened April 4, 2012, and ran through June 9 as part of the 2011-2012 Mainstage Season.
