City, State: Upper Brookville, NY Comments: Dear Richard, Thank you so much for hosting such a wonderful show at The Iguana, which I experienced for the first time last night. I've attended many cabaret shows, but never (yes, I mean never) before have I heard such a wonderful variety of music and such excellent vocalists with great performance abilities. God willing, I will definitely be back! I recommend this event to anyone looking for a great night out in NYC. Richard, I also want to express my appreciation for your generosity of spirit; you [and the very-funny Dana!] unselfishly promote all the performers' shows and CD's, not to mention the Manhattan Association of Cabarets and Clubs, a most admirable trait!

City, State: New York, NY Comments: Richard: First of all let me say congratulations on your first anniversary at The Iguana. You've come a long way, baby! I know it's been a fabulous year! You and Dana just soar! I had a marvelous time performing there on June 30th. All your guests were terrific. Thank you so much. Am eagerly anticipating returning again on August 11th and October 6th. Looking forward to seeing your Carol Channing show on July 27th. I've heard you are phenomenal. I've had tickets now for four weeks and can't wait! All the best to you. And thanks again for being so gracious! Frank Torren
City, State: Mesa, Az. Comments: As my partner of 30 years and I are married in Provincetown this year on August 20th I will be remembering our meeting and your show at the Crown and Anchor a few years ago. You were so gracious to us and your show was fabulous. Thanks for the memories! Richard McTevia, Mesa, Az.

City, State: Coral Springs, FL Website: http://wix.com/doug9117/home Comments: Richard, It was my extreme pleasure to meet you! The cabaret was marvelous! One of the most enjoyable evenings out I've had in quite a while. I was most impressed to see the supportive, loving community that attends your show. I think you foster that feeling, Richard, with your rapport- hmm that word is used too often for too many people- your family relationship with the audience. I had never seen you on stage before and I felt the love and the connection as soon as you began to speak. I know that Carol wants to be remembered for her contributions to arts education, and she will. But what I'll remember her for (and I doubt I'm alone) is her unparalleled skill for making everyone she encounters feel like a life-long friend. You also have that skill in spades. As you're aware, an impersonator's basic responsibility is to emulate one's performance style and appearance so as to produce a believable homage on stage. It's clear to me that you've put extraordinary effort into going the extra mile and finding so much more to learn about Carol. When reviewers say "Richard Skipper IS Carol Channing" They must be talking about your voice and mannerisms, because they are stellar, but If they're smart they're also referring to your spirit, which I know has taken a few pages from Carol's carefully written book. Not to bore you, I'll just say that her philosophies, and now yours, are things which I so hope to further understand and adopt because I know success is drawn to those who practice what they preach, "People's Just People."
