John Riddle (CCM MT ’12) made his Broadway debut in the recently-opened musical, THE VISIT, starring Chita Rivera and Roger Rees.

Riddle, along with his co-star Michelle Veintimilla are described as:

“…haunting scene stealers in Kander and Ebb’s THE VISIT. Embodying Young Claire and Young Anton, the two shadow Chita Rivera and Roger Rees as the veteran actors recount love, loss and betrayal. Veintimilla and Riddle make impressive Broadway debuts. The smooth-voiced Riddle will leave the romantic ballad “You, You, You” swirling through your head, while Veintimilla’s pas de deux with Rivera (which the New York Times called “the most affecting of all”) will leave even the most revenge-hungry among us a little teary-eyed.
