Jonas Chernick started acting when he was just 7 years old when his parents enrolled him in after-schoolclasses at theManitoba Theatre for Young People, formerly known as Actor's Showcase, where he continued to study and perform in various productions for the next ten years. He then studied drama at the University of Manitoba, where he performed and directed several productions with the Black Hole Theatre Company. Around that time, he cofounded the Winnipeg theatre troupe The Conspiracy Network, and performed and co-created four consecutive productions at the Winnipeg Fringe Theatre Festival.
