Western Canada High School not only produced two 2023 Juno nominees (Devon Cole and Tate McCrae), but it turns out an alumnus of the Calgary high school just made Broadway history.
Laird Macintosh, who was part of Western Canada high's school choir when he was a student there, performed the role of the Phantom in the closing night ofin a Toronto production in 1993, stepped in at the last minute to fill in for Ben Crawford, who had a throat infection.
For Macintosh, who performed the role of the Phantom more than 200 times while performing the role of Raoul on Broadway between 2013 and 2019, it was a magical moment that was 30 years in the making. "A week ago, we gave the final performance of @phantomopera," he wrote on Instagram Sunday morning, "and I became the luckiest guy on Broadway.
"This only happens when a lot of people are incredibly generous to you when they don't need to be. I am, day by day, making sure that I thank them all.""Unquestionably the greatest honor of my career to be asked to step on as the Phantom for this performance," he said. "The overriding feelings are of gratitude and elation; it was such an unforgettable night.
