Hugh Panaro, born February 19 1964 is one of Broadway's leading tenors. He began performing at the age of 13. He made his Broadway debut as "Marius" in Les Misérables, a role he originated in the first US national company. Hugh created the roles of "Buddy" in Side Show and "Julian" in Jules Styne's last musical, The Red Shoes. He made his West End debut in the original London company of Harold Prince's Show Boat as "Ravenal", the role he played on Broadway and in Toronto.
At Avery Fisher Hall, he performed with the Radio City Rockettes in Jerry Herman's Mack and Mabel and also in The Stephen Sondheim Gala, the culmination of the Kennedy Center's "Summer of Sondheim," where Hugh was "Anthony Hope" in Sweeney Todd. In Los Angeles, Hugh was "Franklin Shepard" in Merrily We Roll Along and received an Ovation nomination for his performance as "Kenneth" in Call Me Madam, both for Reprise! As a concert artist, Hugh has performed with symphony orchestras across the U.S. and abroad and can be heard on numerous recordings. He is one of the few actors to play both "Raoul" (1991) and "The Phantom" (1999) in the Broadway production of The Phantom of the Opera, but after wearing the mask for only a few months, he was chosen to play the title role in the American premiere of Sir Cameron Mackintosh's Martin Guerre. The handsome and charismatic actor played the title role at the Majestic Theatre in The Phantom of the Opera, until October 1, 2005. His most recent project was the title role in the new Elton John musical, Lestat. His first solo album will be released by Sony Classical.
