Actor and vocalist Quentin has established himself on Broadway. When he was singing on the New York subway to pay for groceries, a casting agent heard him. This resulted in a part in Porgy and Bess’ first national tour.
In addition to Festival of the Lion King, The Golden Apple, La Boheme, Carmen, Gianni Schicchi, and Encores, he has been on Broadway in Prince of Broadway. In The Phantom of the Opera’s national tour, he took on the role of the Phantom.
When the choir director saw him in band in high school and invited him to an audition, he started singing. He majored in opera performance at Northern Arizona University after finishing high school, where he also placed as a regional finalist in the Metropolitan Opera Council Auditions.

Who is Quentin Oliver Lee’s Wife? Meet Angie
Quentin Oliver Lee’s wife is Angie. The pair met at a family home evening activity in 2014 and bonded over their careers at the time. Lee had just returned from playing in the first national tour of “Porgy and Bess,” and Graham had just finished with a master’s degree in acting and married in August 2015.
When Lee was cast as the lead in “The Phantom of the Opera,” the pair faced a similar quandary. Lee went on tour, while Graham remained in New York for a time, but the two quickly realized that being physically together was more important. Together, they have one daughter named Samantha.
