City, State: Brooklyn, New York Website: www.pattibottinobravo.com Comments: When Richard Skipper celebrates Hello, Dolly - laughter, tears, and chills are part of the audience experience. The stories about his experiences with Carol Channing and other portrayers of Dolly Levi are hilarious, heart-felt, and heart-warming. Having seen the play a few times, and the movie multiple times, having this behind-the-scenes, insider point of view was entertaining and educational! I laughed! I cried! I learned! Richard is a warm, naturally funny, entertainer! You can catch an encore performance on March 29th. My only regret is I won’t be in town to see it again!

City, State: NYC Website: https://www.camillediamond.com Comments: Let's please talk about Sunday night at the Laurie Beechman Theater (2/11/24) and the way Richard Skipper held that room, the interviews that were so well placed and well done, his beautiful voice and the way Richard delivered the 'Oak Leaf' monologue. I tell you, I've seen Hello Dolly of course and the last time was with my very favorite Bette Midler. But I never teared up until Sunday night. In addition to being such a wonderful host and a great singer, Richard is a hell of an actor. Camille Diamond, https://www.camillediamond.com
City, State: NYC Comments: The show was really great! You were on top of your game with wit and vocals and interesting Hello Dolly music facts. My sister said she was able to say hi to you. She and her husband loved you and the whole show. They had been to something at 54 below, and they said your show was so much better. Thanks so much for entertaining us!!! Bob Armstrong
City, State: LA, CA Website: https://www.barbaraminkus.com Comments: Richard, I wanted to write you about your show at The Lauree Beachman Theatre last night honoring the wonderful actresses and actors who played a part in Hello Dolly’s history. You, being authentic and loveable made everyone in the audience feel that we were all important to you. The sold out audience was filled with friends and fans who felt they belonged… And you, from the moment came out, (excuse the pun) were endearing, warm, real, incredibly funny with your off the cuff adlibs to your adoring audience. Your choice of songs were a part of the love you gave us… We were all mesmerized with you as you explained your love and devotion to Carol Channing and your special relationship with her; and your passion for musical theatre. The topping was presenting filmed interviews with the wonderfully talented actresses and actors who played a part in history of “Hello Dolly” then …and then you introduced LeeRoy Reems as your special guest who brought down the house with his “Hello Dolly“ stories and song “ I Found a Penny in My Pocket”…from the show… But, Richard it was your ending that made all of us realize how special and extraordinary last night was …(even my friend Lauree was crying because she was so moved and touched by you) Thank you Richard Skipper for giving me and that packed room of people last night a night we will all cherish and never forget… Barbara Minkus, https://www.barbaraminkus.com
