City, State: New York, NY Comments: CAROL CHANNING IN CONCERT is a very entertaining evening, with Richard showing off the best of his many talents. Richard is probably more Carol Channing then even Carol Channing is these days, all done with warmth, sincerity and true admiration of a great theater talent. Richard adds new material from the Carol catalog he has developed over the years. It was a joy to hear "Jazz Baby" from THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE, and "Blondes", special material from LAUGH IN, plus a wonderful gem, "Widow's Weeds" by Ervin Drake. Now if Richard would only pair this song with my very favorite, but very obscure, Channing song, "This Is a Darned Nice Funeral" from Channing's 1961 SHOW GIRL. Richard/Carol is assisted by a 3 piece band and three attractive, accomplished young men, all under the fine direction of Miles Phillips. My only complaint, since the Wings Theater has no concession stand, I'd have shaved a few minutes off from Act One, dropped the intermission, and just given the audience 90 minutes of nonstop pleasure!!

City, State: Staten Island, New York Comments: My wife and I found Richard Skipper's "Carol Channing" show entertaining, relaxing and gave us a smile for the day. Besides enjoying Richard's acting ability, we also broadened our knowledge about the wonderful actress and singer --Carol Channing. We wish him much success in his next adventure on stage.
City, State: NYC Comments: It was really such a nice evening and Richard Skipper should be very proud of all he has accomplished. It is so hard to be an artist and producer at the same time. It takes an incredible person to juggle that. But he has done it. So he needs to feel wonderful about himself and understand how so many great artists never get to be seen or appreciated - by anyone but themselves. So he must revel in the great entertainment and joy you has shared and been able to share. Thank you for a really enjoyable show!
