Franc D Ambrosio

Franc D’Ambrosio is known as “The Iron Man of the Mask” having played the title role in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Tony Award winning musical The Phantom of the Opera for more than 2300 performances; a record he held for a decade. From this notoriety, D’Ambrosio was cast by Barry Manilow as the lead in his touring production of Copacabana.

Other favorite roles include Anthony Corleone, Al Pacino’s opera singer son in Francis Ford Coppola’s Academy Award nominated film “Godfather III, ” a performance that afforded Franc the opportunity to study with legendary tenor Luciano Pavarotti.

Now Franc is celebrating his tenth year touring extensively as both a solo performer and a guest artist on many American symphony orchestra pop series. For his return to Feinstein’s at the Nikko, he’ll honor his hometown with his show Christmas in New York.
