In January 1999, Vincent returned to New York and made his Broadway debut in the cast of Rent at the Nederlander Theatre, playing the roles of both Roger Davis and Mark Cohen at different time periods.
This new production brought about a revival of the show on Broadway, and a last minute cast departure saw Vincent take on the role Judas at composer Andrew Lloyd Webber's request.
"[1] Impressed with his Broadway performances, Webber selected Vincent to travel through China in 2001, introducing the composer's music in a cultural exchange production later released on DVD as "Andrew Lloyd Webber-Masterpiece (Live in Beijing)."
[2] When American Idiot opened on Broadway at the St. James Theatre on April 20, 2010, Vincent received considerable praise for his portrayal of St. Jimmy.
Vincent played his final performance as St. Jimmy on December 30, 2010, and was succeeded by Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong.
Cee Lo Green was so impressed by Vincent's powerful (blind audition) performance of We Are The Champions that he snatched him up for his Team (TeamCeeLo) and commented that Freddie Mercury would have been proud.
During the Live round, Vincent sang Tears for Fears' "Everybody Wants to Rule the World", but received mixed reviews from the judges, who felt the song held back his true voice dynamic.
In 2005, the multi-platinum vocal group Il Divo included the song, Hoy Que Ya No Estas Aqui (As Far As Any Man Can See), co-written by Vincent and Jorgen Elofsson (translation by Rudy Perez), on their self-titled debut album.
[7] The concerts, produced in conjunction with the BBC and the Maltese Tourism Authority in Valletta, Malta and presented by Gary Davies, draw thousands each year.
[8] Vincent supports the work of the Broadway Dreams Foundation and regularly participates in their intensive theatre training courses as a faculty member and guest instructor.
[citation needed] Vincent is also a regular guest artist at David Foster Foundation events to support families whose children are undergoing life-saving organ transplants.
