A proud Newfoundlander, tenor Ryan Downey is quickly gaining nationwide recognition for his “nimbleness of voice” (Bachtrack) and “attractive lyric tenor colour” (Edmonton Journal).  Ryan has recently appeared as Rodolfo in La Boheme, Rinuccio in Gianni Schicchi, and made his main stage debut with Toronto Operetta Theatre in the lead role of Ralph Rackstraw in HMS Pinafore.
