Product Information
"Fun and gossipy." -- The Wall Street Journal * "A masterful history." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) * "Engaging." -- Newsweek A "brisk, insightful, and deliciously detailed take" ( Kirkus Reviews ) on a transformative decade on Broadway, featuring behind-the-scenes accounts of shows such as Rent , Angels in America , Chicago , The Lion King , and The Producers-- shows that changed the history of the American theater. The 1990s was a decade of profound change on Broadway. At the dawn of the nineties, the British invasion of Broadway was in full swing, as musical spectacles like Les Miserables , Cats , and The Phantom of the Opera dominated the box office. But Andrew Lloyd Webber's Sunset Boulevard soon spelled the end of this era and ushered in a new wave of American musicals, beginning with the ascendance of an unlikely show by a struggling writer who reimagined Puccini's opera La Bohème as the smash Broadway show Rent . American musical comedy made its grand return, culminating in The Producers , while plays, always an endangered species on Broadway, staged a powerful comeback with Tony Kushner's Angels in America . A different breed of producers rose up to challenge the grip theater owners had long held on Broadway, and corporations began to see how much money could be made from live theater. And just as Broadway had clawed its way back into the mainstream of American popular culture, the September 11 attacks struck fear into the heart of Americans who thought Times Square might be the next target. But Broadway was back in business just two days later, buoyed by talented theater people intent on bringing New Yorkers together and supporting the economics of an injured city. "Told with all the wit and style readers could wish for" ( Booklist ) Michael Riedel presents the drama behind every mega-hit or shocking flop. From the bitter feuds to the surprising collaborations, all the intrigue of a revolutionary era in the Theater District is packed into Singular Sensation . Broadway has triumphs and disasters, but the show always goes on.

Reviews
"Fun and gossipy . . . Singular Sensation excels in giving the reader a fly-on-the-wall view of backstage infighting, struggles, and victories. . . . Riedel can spin a yarn with zest . . . [making] for a jolly read." -- Wall Street Journal "Riedel''s top note is ''dish''. . . . Singular Sensation feels like a gossipy conversation, after a show, at a restaurant in the theater district. . . . His gimlet eye for masterstrokes of marketing and producing is still there, enriching our understanding of the business, as is his ear for the sharp retort and the clash of egos. . . . Had you never thought about the poster design for Chicago ? Why not? Someone put passion into it, and that passion draws Riedel like honey. It''s not a sentimental book, not at all. But it reads like a love letter all the same." -- New York Times "A masterful history . . . Broadway aficionados and pop culture geeks will be entertained by this fascinating survey." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Riedel is among the cognoscenti for all things Broadway-related. . . . Readers of this breezy, fun, and informative work are the beneficiaries of the rarefied theatrical air of Broadway inhabited by Riedel. An obligatory purchase for all theater collections." -- Library Journal ( starred review) "A very smart, very serious look at the business of Broadway, told with lacerating wit and keen insights into how it works--and how it doesn''t." --Scott Rudin "Engaging . . . There is indeed something for everyone. . . . Singular Sensation is filled with plenty of stories that will be catnip for theater-starved readers." --Newsweek "[Michael Riedel is] the meticulous, gimlet-eyed historian who sees all and puts the pieces in context. . . . Singular Sensation is meticulously structured, well sourced, beautifully written and easily accessible. . . . It belongs in every theater-lover''s library." --Theater Pizzazz "A stellar tome . . . In many ways, the book is a guidebook on how to produce (and not produce) a success on Broadway. . . . Singular Sensation is required reading and the book of the year." -- Hollywood Soapbox "House lights down, stage lights up and, within minutes, you''re transported to another place and time. . . . Michael Riedel takes readers backstage, overseas, onstage, and in rehearsals and meetings with people you''ll recognize if you''re perpetually Broadway-bound. . . . This serious-but-lighthearted, semi-scandalous collection of related stories will make a non-fan happy, too. Indeed, Riedel gives readers a fly-on-the-wall feel . . . like reading Variety with a delightfully droll PhD. It''s likely been a minute since you sat in a theater seat and you miss it very much, but that shouldn''t stop you from enjoying Broadway on paper. So grab Singular Sensation and roll with it." -- Terri Schlichenmeyer " Singular Sensation is an irresistible combination of scandal, history, gossip and diva behavior. . . . Riedel interviewed more than 100 people, so even familiar behind-the-scenes tales gain freshness through first-hand accounts. . . . A vivacious overview of a turbulent decade that revitalized Broadway and energized theatergoers." -- Shelf Awareness "Told with all the wit and style readers could wish for . . . Theater fans longing to see a show during this sequestered time will enjoy this entertaining look at what happens before and after the curtain goes up." -- Booklist "[A] brisk, insightful, and deliciously detailed take [on Broadway] . . . An entertaining diversion for fans until the curtains rise again." --Kirkus Reviews " Singular Sensation offers a happier, insightful look back at some of Broadway''s biggest triumphs, from Sunset Boulevard to The Lion King . From one of Broadway''s most respected commentators and Post columnist." -- New York Post , "Best of Fall"
