City, State: New York, New York Website: WWW.PETERRRAPANARO.COM Comments: I was one of those who were lucky enough last night to be at BIRDLAND for the Ervin Drake tribute at CAST PARTY! The highlight of the evening was a surprise visit by the FANTASTIC Richard Skipper as Carol Channing! Richard was not only in great form and wonderful voice, I was so impressed how he remembered all the words of the song "WIDOWS WEED." BRILLIANT! As well, I was sitting next to a women from Indiana who turned to me and asked if CAROL CHANNING performs at BIRDLAND often! She actually thought Richard was Carol as I am sure others did as well! Richard my dear, I have been saying for years, SOMEONE GET THIS SHOW TO LAS VEGAS!!!!!
City, State: Eastchester, NY Comments: What a great night at "Helen's" last week for Carol Channing's charity event. Richard Skipper gets better each and every time I see him perform. It's no wonder Carol Channing herself is such a big fan of his. There were moments you would swear it was Carol herself on stage. Richard loves what he's doing and he does it well. His backup singers, musical combo and the extensive material all meshed into a totally enjoyable evening.
City, State: Philadelphia, Pa. Comments: Richard Skipper's performance was incredible at East Coast Gathering in Maryland. So glad he answered my question on stage, too. Skipper is a great singer, the exact image of 1960's era Carol, and incredibly witty. Look forward to seeing his show and him again soon.
City, State: Spring Valley, New York Website: www.artscouncilofrockland.org Comments: “. . . terrific presentation . . . a great amount of information and professional insight . . . Richard Skipper is the real deal . . . I wish the workshop was longer . . . thanks for having him . . .” These are just a few of the comments made by the participants of the “Making a Living on the Road” workshop held at the Arts Council of Rockland this past May. Richard presented an incredibly informative and professional presentation that was a huge success. The session was designed to custom fit the needs of the participants. For organizations that provide services to artists this is a "must-have" workshop. Richard, your willingness to give so freely of your time, knowledge and expertise is greatly appreciated. I look forward to working with you again in the future. Patrick Cacciola Program Director Arts Council of Rockland
City, State: NY, NY Comments: What a night!!! I feel so lucky to have been at that wonderful fund raiser Richard Skipper organized for the legendary Carol Channing and her Foundation for the Arts. His tribute of Carol Channing is uncanny. I couldn't take my eyes off of him. (AND Carol Channing watching him!) His singing is fabulous. Skipper just charmed everyone out of their seats for a well deserved standing ovation. He is the cosummate performer. Hope to see him soon again. Linda Axelrod |
