City, State: NYC Website: http://www.percevalassociates.com Comments: I've never had so much fun or experienced such joy in the surprise--every show is fresh and new given Skipper's talent for interacting with his audience. His tribute to Channing is remarkable for its spot-on character, historical accuracy, respect and unqualified musical talent! Richard Skipper as Carol Channing is a masterclass in musical comedy.

City, State: New York, NY Comments: Great show
City, State: NYC Comments: Oh Richard, how lovely you are. Glad we were able to come to your show last night (1/10/11). THIS SHOW was even better than ever. I like all of the little changes/adjustments. Your recording/message in the beginning of the show was great and cute. Better than the video actually. The stage looked better (even if one of the pictures fell....it couldn't have happened at a better time of the show). But YOU have a gift of knowing your audience and a focus that I don't think you can even teach. This was smooth, meaningful and fun. I wish you success. I think it will last a long time, you've done it!! And you've shown that there can be respect, polish, and talent in a show without the loud music, wild lighting and flying actors. I'm so lucky and proud to know you. CONGRATULATIONS. Mary Lahti, NYC
City, State: New York, New York Website: www.jimlahti.com Comments: Despite not being someone who goes and sees a show over and over again, I must say I just came home from my FOURTH trip to see Richard Skipper as "Carol Channing" and I was as enthralled as on the previous three occasions! Richard is a consummate entertainer, a gifted and nuanced actor and singer and one of the most adept performers I've ever seen anywhere when it comes to improvisation. This show is a must-see for anyone who loves the theatre, loves Broadway, and loves being wonderfully entertained. Thank you, Richard, for yet another delightful evening in the theatre!

Website: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2524516 Comments: BACK STORY: When I first met and got to know Richard a couple of months ago, he was getting ready to open his Production of "Richard Skipper As 'Carol Channing' In Concert". I liked Richard immediately, so as an Actor-Singer myself in between jobs (and aren't we all!) with a little extra time on his hands, I decided to offer him my help in any small way that I could; end of "BACK STORY". I began by assisting with some of the publicity duties. My other duty-and this is where the really fun part comes in-was to serve as an Usher for as many performances as I could. BTW, I was performing these duties on a volunteer basis; I could've left any time I wanted to. NO WAY! By now, I have seen Richard as 'Carol Channing' several times, and each and every time he is absolutely brilliant. He is truly THE consummate performance artist, his Carol Channing is spot-on, and most importantly his audience(s) absolutely LOVE the Show. I'm a little biased here, which means that I don't HAVE TO write this. I just WANT TO write this, to tell everyone how much you'll enjoy "Richard Skipper As 'Carol Channing' In Concert". One more BTW.....this is a G-Rated Show that you can bring the whole family to see. In fact, I'll even be bringing my five-year-old Grandson to see it! So come see "Richard Skipper As 'Carol Channing' In Concert" as soon (and as often!) as you can.....you'll LOVE her! Ronnie Giles, http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2524516 |
