Forster appeared in Thriller – Live in 2009. Forster, a singer/songwriter based in London, performs around the world and abroad. He was born in Sunderland and received a scholarship to the prestigious Italia Conti Academy in London at 16 years old.

During his preparation, he was heavily featured in the BBC's prime time fly-on-the-wall film The Dream Academy, which attracted over 3 million viewers. Forster appeared in the musical La Cava in London the same year, and James Bond's family appeared in the production for the first time. He went on to perform in Lennon and McCartney's West End musical All You Need Is Love. The 20-year-old Forster began writing during the show's run. He began performing as a solo artist before signing a record contract with an independent label. He wrote and recorded his first ten-song live album, but the recording company declared bankruptcy and Forster's solo musical aspirations were put on hold.

Forster, after finishing the 2012 arena tour of Jesus Christ Superstar, joined Brad Majors in the 40th anniversary tour of The Rocky Horror Show, alongside Roxanne Pallett, Rhydian, Kristian Lavercombe, and Oliver Thornton.

Forster was to reprise his role as Jesus on JCS' North American tour, with Incubus' Brandon Boyd as Judas Iscariot, Destiny's Child's Michelle Williams as Mary Magdalene, 'N Sync's JC Chasez as Pontius Pilate, and Public Image Ltd's John Lydon as King Hero. On May 30, 2014, the North American tour was postponed.

Magaldi appeared in Forster's West End production of Evita in the Dominion Theatre from 2013-2014.

Forster retold Buddy in Elf: The Musical at the Dominion Theatre in October 2015, a role in which he appeared in the UK premiere in 2014 in Plymouth. The show ran until January 2016.

Forster has been portraying The Phantom in London's The Phantom of the Opera since February 1, 2016.

When Ben Forster, 42, appeared in Will Ferrell's character Buddy from 2003, he claims elves spun him while decorating a Christmas tree and performing a dance. During the show's run at The Lowry Theatre in Salford, Manchester, the actor then collapsed from the wheeled ladder, causing the injury. Last year, his counsel David White told the High Court that returning to physical fitness of being a top West End stage performer would no longer be a problem.' Mr Forster has now signed a confidential agreement with Elf The Musical (UK) Ltd.
