City, State: Scarsdale, NY Comments: We were very much entertained by Richard Skipper's Dazzling and clever performance. He has perfected Carol to a tee and has managed to keep her image alive and fresh and I'm sure she must be delighted. We thought he stayed in perfect character both in voice and look and his costumes, hair and jewelry were right on target. We enjoyed the trio of boy dancers and singers and loved their song "It Only Takes a Moment". Richard Skipper is a fine entertainer and we send our best to him and look forward to his next performance.
City, State: Metuchen, NJ Website: www.MichaelColby.com Comments: With CAROL CHANNING IN CONCERT, Richard has accomplished the amazing feat of putting on his best show yet--a joy from start to finish. With his lively musicians and backup chorus, he thoroughly evokes not only Channing but the shows and films in which she starred. As someone who saw the original HELLO, DOLLY! (and the most recent Broadway revival), I can tell you those Gower Champion-like moves make you feel like you're reliving the actual experience. Richard transcends impersonation. He gives one of those rare performances (like Isabel Keating as Judy Garland in THE BOY FROM OZ and Martin Landau in ED WOOD), where you feel like you're seeing the actual icon being portrayed.
City, State: Little Falls, NJ Comments: Richard Skipper is very talented, the set is well done, and the supporting cast is very professional. All this off off broadway? What a deal! Quite honestly, with Richard's obvious singing and stage skills, he should be alot closer to Broadway. May his talent overcome all obstacles.
City, State: New York, New York Comments: Richard Skipper is so MAGNIFICENT!!!!! The entire audience fell in love with him. His voice, his mannerisms, captures the total essence of Carol Channing. He is the meaning of a true professional. He just shines up there on that stage. The entire cast from the director, the orchestra, the back up artists, set designer, costumes designers and especially RICHARD SKIPPER deserve a standing ovation. He should be on Broadway. Thank you for a wonderful evening of entertainment Loved it loved it, loved it !!!! Our friends are including the Wings theatre on their contribution list because of him. What more can one say?
City, State: Riverdale, NY Comments: The show is great. I had only seen Richard in cabarets over the years but this show is so much more. The theater setting with dancing, special staging, great posters, and a musical combo added so much more.. Of course, Richard's presentation was super. Everyone should see it! |
