City, State: New York, NY Comments: Richard, I can't wait to be part of the 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY @ IGUANA. Thank you so much for your ongoing generosity and for allowing me such a great stage to sing on in front of such an incredible audience. I continue to learn so much and am constantly inspired by the incredibly talented singers you schedule to perform there week after week... My best wishes to you for another AMAZING and SUCCESSFUL year at the Iguana!! Thank you! -Gregory Nalbone
Comments: The Following is from Rich Siegel's blog:To acknowledge one special professional relationship in particular, I've toured the US with cabaret star Richard Skipper , from Maine to Colorado to South Carolina and various points in between. I suppose I never expected back in my music school days that I would be working for a man who puts on a dress and becomes Carol Channing, but doing so has been an absolute delight! Celebrities! (This paragraph is not for the squeamish! I am dropping names!) Did I tell you that just before a Richard Skipper show in Mississippi Carol Channing herself called to wish us a good show?!! Part of the fun of working as a free-lance musician has been contact with celebrities, and I'd be lying if I denied it! (SOURCE: http://richsiegel.com/musicmaina.html)

City, State: NYC Comments: It was great to see Richard Skipper perform last night at Tudor City Greens AND The Iguana. He is the perfect host and has proven he is a great host anywhere. We can't wait to see his show in July. I'm getting some others to join us. Oh...and a friend of ours in California just LOVES him. She sees the reviews and testimonials and thinks he is pretty classy. We hope they will be out here in the fall and she can't wait to meet him. Mary Lahti
City, State: New York, New York Website: none Comments: I had the privilege of seeing Richard Skipper perform for the first time in Darlington, Maryland Sunday evening (5/30/10). As a little boy of 11, I first saw Carol Channing in "Hello Dolly" and she was exquisite. The very same can be said about Richard. He not only channeled her best qualities, he was Carol Channing with all of the quirkiness, humor, engaging conversation with the audience as well as the best set of pipes you have ever heard. His theatrical persona only validates that Richard is capable of anything on stage. It was one of the most enjoyable evenings I have had in a long time. If they ever bring back "Dolly", I know who the title role should go to. If you want to enjoy yourself with tremendous singing, story telling and wry wit then you must go to any of Richard's performances -- he's an angel. He left a lipstick mark on my cheek and in my heart. Thanks Richard!! Will Schneider, NYC |
