A 1995 Toronto playbill with an insert of Doug LaBrecque going on as The Phantom. He played Raoul in Toronto, though I am not sure whether he was was principle or understudy, even the playbill collections don’t show much in terms of him. I do know there is an audio recording of him from 1998 with Ethan Freeman so he was likely in the show to some capacity for a few years. Mid 90′s programs from Toronto are nearly impossible to find (heck, there’s alot more original cast or Colm Wilkinson ones), and 1996-early 1998 I have legit never seen and don’t know the understudies (it’s driven me crazy for years)
Anyway this was a neat find, there is also a video (so shaky it might as well just listen to it) of his Music of the Night on YouTube and he sounds really nice!
