If you want an event(s) to happen and be beyond belief amazing, get Richard Skipper. He not only can sing and act brilliantly, his organizational /marketing acumen and hosting abilities along with his delightful personalty will insure the success of every aspect of your event.

What a spectacular time Chuck Charles Karel and I had at the event organized by Richard Skipper with a gorgeous tear producing opening video created by Richard's partner, Danny Sherman, for the 50th Anniversary of the original production of Hello Dolly on Broadway. It was held at the fabulous New York Sheet Music Society, a love fest that was jam-packed. Several panels moderated by Richard Skipper were filled with the original cast and subsequent casts. They could have gone on for another hour or so more with nostalgic and rib-tickling stories. I was fascinated with all the history they made and the historical nature of the event itself.

THEN, it was off to Sardi's the next day for a 100 person brunch organized again by Richard Skipper for this 50th Anniversary of the original Hello Dolly. Then to Herman on Herman starring Peggy Herman with guest Lee Roy Reams at the Laurie Beechman Theatre. I am reeling with delight and unbridled joy! Thank you, Richard for making all this possible.

How and/or why not one local or national media representative covered this series of theatrical and historical events is beyond belief!

Richard Skipper, from my very own personal experience, is a genuine gentleman of Show Business. Although he is a performer and a man of many hats, Richard Skipper is a fabulous fan of performing artists, and does his utmost to shine a spotlight on all he feels are deserving. In the summer of 2013, Richard produced an evening at The Metropolitan Room in New York City … for me. All I had to do was show up, join him for an Interview and answer questions. To my surprise, he created a video of my stage, TV and film work. And he brought a surprise, a wonderful pianist who played my favorite show tune, Mr. Snow. It was a heady and unforgettable evening. I recommend his personal website, www.RichardSkipper.com, so you can read for yourself about his blog and the over 700 celebrity interviews he’s written, his own career as an entertainer, and Richard’s generous support of worthy causes. I’m so lucky to be his Friend! Jackie Joseph

Dear Richard,
I hope you felt those waves of love coming at you from the audience at the Sheet Music Society and the guests at the Sardi luncheon.  Both events felt like parties that were meticulously organized and orchestrated by a host and emcee who was motivated by love.  That high level of professionalism can't be manufactured.  On a personal level, both events made me glow. It was great seeing old friends and making new ones.  Thank you for bringing us together.  If you hadn't done it I doubt that anyone else would have.  Seeing HELLO, DOLLY! for the first time at the matinee on March 25, 1964 changed my life forever.  This past weekend rekindled that thrill.    Love, Josh
