It's a Wonderful Life - review - Broadway WOrld

It's a Wonderful Life - review - Providence Journal

"There are some touching moments, especially from Jef Canter's kind-hearted Clarence... Canter is perfect for the part, a sort of naive, childlike creature..."  Click here for full review.

A Midsummer Night's Dream - review - Tallahassee Democrat

"As Bottom, he's like no other I've experienced; he possesses an energetic quickness entangled with an oafish hedonism that leads to complacency and sloth. It's like Bottom with a dash of Falstaff. I absoutely loved every moment he took the stage..."  Click here to see the full review as a PDF.

Around the World in 80 Days - review - Kloucksphoto.blogspot.com

"The imaginative Jef Canter plays around 21 distinct characters with 33 costume changes. From a Scottish boatman, to an Indian judge, to a western cowboy and a mubling mountain man named Mudge, and many more, Canter plays them all..."  Click here for full review.

Around the World in 80 Days - review - CT Wit

"The remarkable virtuosity of Canter pleases at every turn..."  Click here for full review.

Shadowlands- review - Orange county register
