I had the most splendid time at An Evening with Richard Skipper: From Conway to Broadway on August 5, 2019.  Richard is an extraordinary entertainer, and he has learned his craft from the best.  Miss Channing would have been proud. I loved hearing about the young 'Ricky' in Conway.  He delivered his stories with delicious specificity.

        CONGRATULATIONS.

It would be hard to single out one interview, episode or performance that is my favourite. But we're especially loving the interview with Concetta Bertoldi. She reminds me of so many of the lovely ladies in the neighbourhood, who were Benedicaria, and who were kind and supportive of my growing up a stregone mago (Italian witch). Delightful!! And her gift is palpable. 

Richard puts his guests at ease, and brings so many important topics to the forum of life. His interview with Ellen Matzen and Valery Hughes (authors of Nurses on the Inside: Stories from the HIV/AIDS Epidemic in NYC) is a classic example of that.

Not f'nothin', but better that Merv has crossed over to theOther Side, because Richard Skipper would have been some serious competition for Miss Griffin. #JustSayin

It was such a delight to be in the audience on August 5th at the ST. Luke's Theatre and sit in anticipation waiting for Richard Skipper's Show to begin.  And, what a delight it turned out to be.

From the moment the lights dimmed and the opening video presentation began you could feel the electricity flow throughout the theatre.
 And then as only Richard can, he rose out of his chair and sang to every single member of "his" audience his opening number. Yes, "his" audience because he always makes you feel as though he's performing just for you.
His show went by so quickly and yet you wanted to hear more about his life and how well he portrayed his experiences which came from his heart.
His family history was so special as he described every member of his family, his friends and the people he met along his way to New York in amazing detail just as if they happened to be on stage alongside him.  
And in such a caring, humorous and loving way.  You only wanted to hear more of his life's adventure and what it all meant to him. 
Never once throughout the show did I ever think to myself, "when will this be over", only wanting more. 

His show "From Conway to New York" is like a really good book that you can't put down and you don't want it to ever end. And, when you come to the end of the last page, you close the book and say to yourself, I hope the sequel will be out soon.
Well, I'm waiting for "From Conway to New York" part two.
So, to those of you who waited to purchase tickets at the last minute, don't wait....
Part Two can only be better...….

My husband and I had the pleasure to attend Richard Skipper's show From Conway to Broadway.  We traveled all the way from Cape Cod, Mass. to attend and it was well worth the trip!  Richard's story was both entertaining and inspirational.  His journey to the New York entertainment scene was a joy to hear, and the production mixed his storytelling with musical numbers, which brought it to life for us.  The entire production was well done and fun.  We can't wait for part two!
