Jon Cable

Biography

American actor/singer Jonathan Cable grew up in North Manchester, Indiana where he first developed a love for performing. He started playing the piano at age 6, and his love of music led him to begin studying voice and performing in community theatre productions of various musicals. He was also an avid athlete growing up, playing varsity tennis and basketball as well as golf, soccer, and baseball. Jonathan decided in high school that he wanted to pursue a career as an actor and a singer, and these dreams led him to Illinois Wesleyan University in Bloomington, Illinois where he graduated Magna cum laude with a B.F.A in Music Theatre.


From 2017-2019, Jonathan toured the U.S. and Canada with the 2nd National Tour of Jersey Boys in which he played Four Seasons bass player Nick Massi. On his portrayal of Massi, the Orlando Times commented that Jonathan's "stoic and intimidating nature was balanced by touching scenes of reflection on his life." Jonathan then had the honor of playing the role with the closing Off-Broadway cast in NYC.


Jonathan has also crossed over into on-camera work in New York City. In the new season of NBC's Law and Order, he guest stars as young politician Derek Hoyt who has an unfortunate encounter with a NYC bus. Jonathan also played basketball with Mr. Mayhem in an Allstate Insurance commercial with Dean Winters titled "Power Forward."
