Welcome to FrankMastrone.com

Frank was born in Bridgeport and grew up in Monroe, CT, graduated from Masuk High School, where he discovered his love for singing and the theatre.  He went on to earn a BFA from Central CT State University. He began singing professionally during college performing cabaret shows at JP’s Good Time Emporium in Hartford as a “Singing Waiter.”  Really!

After moving to NY and performing in regional, dinner theatre and stock productions from Maine to Pennsylvania for a few years, Frank was asked to join the first national tour of CATS, as Gus; the Theatre Cat, traveling from San Francisco to Boston. Two years later, he was the last person hired for the original cast of Andrew Lloyd Webbers, THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, making his Broadway debut and performing numerous parts in what would turn out to be the longest running show in Broadway history.  

Frank took to the road again in the role of Jean Val Jean in Les Misérables, eventually joining the NY Company at the Imperial Theatre. 

Off-Broadway was next with TAPESTRY: The Music of Carol King. Unfortunately, this intimate musical revue was short lived, and Frank soon joined a tour of the pop-opera EVITA, as the Tango singer Augustine Magaldi, performing in sixty-one cities in forty-nine weeks! 

After taking a year off to study the Meisner technique at the William Esper Studio, Frank landed back on the great white way in BIG: The Musical, based on the hit film. That was followed by the hit musical JEKYL & HYDE for a nearly four-year run, and the chance to understudy and perform the title role dozens of times!  

One fascinating experience was touring from coast to coast in the hit show MAMMA MIA for over a year “in a minivan with his wife and infant triplet daughters!” 

Other Broadway includes SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER as Mr. Fusco, the “paint store guy”, CATS as Gus, followed by a six-year run in a return to PHANTOM, covering and performing over a dozen roles. 

Frank performed in London where he made his Royal Albert Hall debut in the concert version of the Benny Annderson & Bjorn Ulvaeus (ABBA) musical KRISTINA (live recording available on DECCA). 

Other concert appearances include SOUTH PACIFIC (Great performances) and SHOWBOATat Carnegie Hall, CAMELOT with the NY Philharmonic (Live from Lincoln Center), The Ballroom, Sam’s, The Sands Hotel (Atlantic City), and the Wallingford and East Hartford Symphony Orchestras.  

Most recently Frank has been producing his own theatre concerts and doing plays, musicals at The Music Theatre of CT, The Summer Theatre of New Canaan, the Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts, The Darien Arts center, The Fairfield Theatre Company, The Edmond Town Hall, The SHU Fairfield Community Theatre, as well as doing cabaret shows in dozens of restaurants and clubs.

Frank is married to Ramona Spinelli. They now live in Stamford and keep very busy with their grown daughters Livia, Ava and Franki.
