Jamie Muscato (born 12 April 1990) is an English actor and singer.

He starred in productions of Unforgotten in the British Youth Music Theatre in 2004 and 2005.

Muscato took part in ITV show Stars in Their Eyes Kids at age 15 after his mother submitted a tape of him singing classic showtunes, which subsequently got him to audition for the contest.

For the show, he impersonated Michael Crawford, singing The Music of the Night from Phantom of the Opera.

In 2006, at the London Wicked day celebration on October 29, he was one of the ten contestants of the singing contest held during the event, where he sang Dancing Through Life.

He went on to win the competition.

For the original London production of Spring Awakening, Muscato was cast in the show as a swing by its casting director, Pippa Ailion, after she had seen him in a singing competition.

This marked his professional debut as the show ran in the Lyric Hammersmith from January 23, 2009, through March 14, 2009.

Muscato later made his West End debut following the show's transfer to the Novello Theatre, where it played from March 21, 2009, until its early closure on May 30, 2009.

The tour started in the Wales Millennium Centre on December 12, 2009, in Cardiff.

He joined the show after its transfer to the Duchess Theatre, running from December 6, 2010, to February 26, 2011.

During the show's run, a cast recording of the show was announced, and released days later; Muscato is part of the recording as an ensemble member.

Soon after, he joined the ensemble cast of the original West End run of Rock of Ages, also understudying for both Drew and Franz. He took a break from the show to film for the Les Misérables film, where he was part of the ensemble cast as a revolutionary student.

Muscato continued in Rock of Ages until late 2013, where he joined the cast of the world premiere of The Light Princess as an ensemble cast member and understudy for lead male Digby.

It ran in the National Theatre from October 9, 2013, through February 2, 2014.

He later remarked in an interview that it was his dream to perform in the National Theatre after he had visited it on a school trip, which was fulfilled after he had performed in the show.

Following its 2012 run Off-Broadway, Dogfight was announced in May 2014 to be receiving both its European and UK premiere in the Southwark Playhouse, for a month-long engagement from August 13, 2014, through September 13, 2014.

On June 30, 2014, casting for the show was announced, with Muscato playing the lead role of Eddie Birdlace.

This marked his first lead role in a professional production, playing opposite Laura Jane Matthewson, who was cast as Rose Fenny.

Muscato received positive reviews for his performance, citing his charismatic portrayal, acting, and vocal quality.

Exactly a year after the show's closing, a reunion of the cast was announced, to perform a one-night only concert production of the show.

Muscato made his television debut as English musician Rory Storm in 2014 ITV series Cilla, about English singer Cilla Black's early career.

Muscato was announced to be playing Nathan in The House of Mirrors and Hearts, which would be playing in the Arcola Theatre.

It played on the St. James Theatre on October 11, 2015.

The show ran from July 7, 2015, to August 1, 2015.

Muscato is best known for his portrayal of Jason Dean in the original London run of Heathers: The Musical in 2018.

He has starred in several other West End stage productions, including Moulin Rouge! as Christian, West Side Story as Tony and Les Misérables as Enjolras.

As a teenager, he was in a production of Unforgotten as a member of the British Youth Music Theatre, continuing his musical theatre training and appearing in other singing competitions.

His first professional role was as an ensemble swing for the original London cast of Spring Awakening, marking his West End debut after its transfer.

Muscato grew up in Brighton.

When he was eight, he took part in an open audition for a pantomime in his hometown.

He then fell in love with acting and joined several amateur theatre companies, saying later on that "[acting has] been the only thing I've wanted to do since then and I've been lucky to make a career out of it".

He auditioned for the role of Harry Potter in the films, and performed in front of director Chris Columbus.
