I'm still reeling, giddy and buoyed up, floating ....
Well it's time to come down to earth, isn't it.

I'm wanting to find the right words to thank Richard Skipper for hosting a surprisingly love filled evening. Richard led a conversation, in front of an appreciative audience, at the Metropolitan Room in New York City, it was like doing a Cabaret Act, only instead of singing other peoples songs, I was sharing my life stories, and telling nice tales about the great people I've been lucky enough to work with. It's quite dazzling to learn, that with Richard's guidance, people really are interested and they so respect ones past work ,and how this life takes it twists and turns. He not only surprised me with flowers and a video of film clips with a musical background from "The Billy Barnes Revue," Richard had a pianist ready to play the song I always wish I had done in the theatre, Mr. Snow from "Carousel." The audience joined in and it was a personal moment that I'll never forget. So, with the biggest appreciation I can muster, thank you Richard Skipper, for a tribute that I never dreamed I deserved. So the dream came true and I felt like a million!, I can't wait to hear about the future tributes that Richard will bring to the Metropolitan Room. It is the perfect place for for his talent to praise other talents. Very joyful and full of myself ... with a shy bow, Jackie Joseph-Lawrence

On July 3rd, 2013, a wonderful event occurred at the Metropolitan Room in New York City. Performer, Richard Skipper launched a celebrity interview program, which will be ongoing.
His first guest was Jackie Joseph, who recounted her career, with great anecdotes and information about icons of television from the 60's and 70's, most notably Doris Day and Dick van Dyke.
Jackie was delightful throughout and could resist performing "Mr. Snow" from "Carousel", her favorite role.
Richard Skipper, paced the interview well, encouraged interaction from the audience and the outcome was lots of fun! He has great guests lined up for the future in this wonderful space, which lent itself beautifully to this format. Looking forward to more, more, more!

I really enjoyed Richard Skipper Celebrates...Jackie Joseph at the Metropolitan Room Wednesday Night (July 3rd, 2013). The format Richard has created is so entertaining and casual at the same time. He handled the questions and guided the night along in such a skillful manner. Ms. Joseph was the "star" of the night and he made sure she shined. Congratulations on a great new expansion in Richard's theater and cabaret career.

What a marvelous evening Richard Skipper hosted with Jackie Joseph. He had all of us captured from the moment he said "Good Evening"! His interview flowed and he kept the audience totally involved. He was so focused and we could see he really did his homework and totally enjoyed what he was doing! I hopehe'll make these interviews a steady event!!
