OGDENSBURG -- Ogdensburg Command Performances will host Broadway veterans Glory Crampton and Franc D’Ambrosio in “Angel of Music,” a salute to Andrew Lloyd Webber, in George Hall Auditorium, O.F.A., Saturday, May 18.

Franc D’Ambrosio is best known as the phantom in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Tony Award winning musical, “Phantom of the Opera.” Known as “The Iron Man of the Mask,” he was the “World’s Longest Running Phantom.” He also starred in Francis Ford Coppola’s “Godfather III” as the opera singing son of Al Pacino.

Two local singers will be chosen to star in the roles of “Christine” and “Raoul.” The chosen stars will sing the duet “All I Ask of You” from “The Phantom of the Opera.”

The singers will be selected after an audition with Franc D’Ambrosio.

Six finalists will be chosen for vocal and acting lessons with D’Ambrosio. After hearing and working with the finalists one “Christine” and one “Raoul” will be chosen.
