While theaters are shut down around the world, theater reporter and columnist Michael Riedel arrives to fill the void with the kind of reporter and backstage gossip that made his years as a New York Post theater columnist so popular.
Now working as a radio host with Len Berman on New York’s 710 WOR from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. weekdays, Riedel has just published “Singular Sensation: The Triumph of Broadway,” his second book about a specific period of Broadway history.
Published by Simon & Schuster division Avid Reader Press, it’s a followup to “Razzle Dazzle,” an in-depth look at the role Broadway played in the revitalization of Times Square, and the boost in tourism in the 1970s.
