"Phantom D’Ambrosio in knockout solo show”
- San Francisco Chronicle
"“His deep, rich voice fills the theatre...his commanding stage presence is almost hypnotic”" - TalkinBroadway.com
"Well, what can I say? Tremendous, fantastic, wonderful, entertaining, delightful, fun, moving, heartwarming, talented, just what I wanted? Yes--to all that and more! Of course, I'm not surprised. That's why I wanted you back. But I will agree with what you told me last year - you are better than ever!" - Physicians Mutual Insurance Company
He made his Broadway debut in the first revival of Sweeney Todd.
After an international talent search lasting over a year, Franc was selected to play the role of Anthony Corleone, the opera-singing son of Al Pacino in Francis Ford Coppola’s Godfather III. The film received 7 Academy Award nominations, including Best Score, featuring Franc on the Original Motion Picture soundtrack. Franc had the honor of sing the Academy Award winning theme song for the film.
It was in the Off Broadway production of Valentino that Franc caught the eye of Barry Manilow, who personally selected him to create and star as the male lead “Tony” in the pre-Broadway tour of Copacabana. The show enjoyed a successful year-long tour and a performance that earned Franc a National Theatre Award nomination for Best Male Performer in a Musical.
Television appearances include “Entertainment Tonight”, “Access Hollywood” and “MTV’s Spotlight”, various television specials and live events.
As a result of his Phantom status, Franc not only attended the American premiere of Joel Schumacher’s much anticipated musical film production of The Phantom of the Opera held in New York City, but also served as the red carpet correspondent for “Access Hollywood’s” coverage of the film.
Olympic Champion Brian Boitano invited Franc to perform as a Special Musical Guest in the skater’s NBC special “Brian Boitano’s Skating Spectacular”, followed by Boitano’s next TV special, “The 2005 Tribute to Movies on Ice”, where Franc starred as Special Musical Guest with Michael Bolton. Franc’s performance of “Music of the Night” from the movie The Phantom of the Opera, skated to by Mr. Boitano, received the evening’s standing ovation.
Franc is featured on many CD’s and his performance of “Panis Angelicus” earned him a
Grammy Consideration for Best Male Vocalist 1999.
He also appeared with Michael Feinstein, Amanda McBroom, Maureen McGovern and others
on a new CD titled In Good Company (LML Music) released Spring 2005.
In November 2005, Franc received a Grammy Consideration for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album for Franc D’Ambrosio’s Broadway.
