Comments: I have NOT seen Richard Skipper often, but when I did, my comment is his artistry is consistent, true, and in the moment. Richard's talent is within him and cannot be taught. Even if he stood on his left ear and whistled "Dixie", Richard could not teach this to an excellent yet ordinary talent. There are well-known singers who sing, but don't make music; well-known instrumentalists who play, but don't interpret; well-known dancers who are technically brilliant, but just mime the steps; and well-known actors who act (emote) but don't simply (just) say the lines". Richard TRULY gets into the persona. He does not impersonate. Richard IS the embodiment of artistry. Sheila Weiler, NYC
City, State: LAGUNA WOODS,CA Website: WWW.MYSPACE.COM/CASUSSMAN Comments: If you've not yet seen Richard Skipper as Ms. Carol Channing then go see him now. Take a relative or friend with you too. I saw him here in California a few years back and was completely mesmerized and captivated by his polished act. He has charm and charisma galore but also does a great job of becoming, in front of your eyes,Dolly Levi and Lorelei Lee and is a super talented actor and singer able to transform completely into Carol Channing with seamless perfection. It was a wonderful night out and Skipper should be on Broadway in an unlimited run of either GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES or HELLO DOLLY as either or BOTH of these 2 characters that were played so beautifully by Ms. Channing.

City, State: new york ny Website: www.spalabnyc.com Comments: I am not a professional critic, but I know when something is good and worthwhile. I was completely blown away with Richard's performance on Christmas Eve. At times, I forgot it was actually Richard on stage, I really thought it was Carol Channing performing and singing. I thought, how nice of Carol to entertain us tonight! It was a walk down memory lane as Carol told us stories of her career and sang song from her shows. Carol had the entire audience involved with the show. Some people got gifts, some got new husbands, one got to dance, and we all got to sing. I Honestly felt like I was at a friends house for an intimate get-together. Go see this show... you will really like it. Larry Costa, www.spalabnyc.com

City, State: New York, New York Website: www.marketing doctor.tv Comments: Richard Skipper IS Carol Channing. His talent both as a singer and Carol Channing interpreter makes the show a must see for the professional theater goer as well as entertainment seeking individual public. He is the ultimate performer who understands his audience knows what they want and then delivers a product that they love. I highly recommend seeing this at least once if not more because no two shows are exactly alike. This is what makes Mr. Skipper a true brand original. Ms Channing should be deeply proud for such a beautiful tribute to this American treasure and icon. A must see! John Tantillo, The Marketing Doctor. |
