Lovett then immediately joined the original Broadway production of Les Miserables as an understudy for the role of Marius Pontmercy.
[4] In 1994, Lovett made the front page of the New York Times by performing the lead in two Broadway shows in two days.
After his final performance as The Phantom of the Opera (After which Jeff Keller took over), Lovett was asked to learn the role of Billy Bigelow in Carousel as an emergency replacement for the show's ailing star; in an unusual move, Lincoln Center had temporarily closed its production.
From 3 September 2012 to 31 August 2013, he reprised the role of The Phantom of the Opera, this time at Her Majesty's Theatre in the West End of London.
[7][8] Lovett's voice is the trademark for Good Morning America, This Week with George Stephanopoulos and, for seventeen years, The David Letterman Show, in addition to thousands of commercials and promotions for television and radio.
