City, State: Charlottesville, VA Website: http://www.gravity-lounge.com/ Comments: Dear Richard, We very much enjoyed and appreciated your visit and stunning performance. Any performer, I believe, would be pleased with the *quality* of your audience. You made a lot of people very happy for an evening, and gave them an experience they will never forget. One of those here was telling someone about the performance later, and he said, "Richard was channeling Carol Channing"-- I let it go at the time, but later I told him, "Channeling makes it sound effortless, like it's beyond his control. What he's doing is studied and nuanced...it's completely in the moment. It's like nothing I have ever experienced before." I believe there are audiences EVERYWHERE who are hungry for that kind of show, that kind of talent. The act is a stunner, and it is IDEAL for any room, I have no illusions that you would play a big room the same way you played our club. Thanks again. You're amazing. With respect and admiration, Bill Baldwin, Booking Manager GRAVITY-LOUNGE
City, State: Arlington, VA Comments: Luckily attended the birthday party concert for Carol Channing at the National Theatre in DC last week and had a blast. Having worked with Ms. Channing on 'Dolly', it was a pleasure to see that Richard's tribute was right on the money. He even ad libbed accurately! And he sings it all live! None of that "lip synch" nonsense. If you get a chance to catch one of Skipper's concerts, don't pass it up... ..."for the pleasure and the profit it derives" Miguel
City, State: Berwyn Heights, Maryland Comments: Your show is an elixir that fills my heart with joy! Hank & I saw you at the National(Jan.29) and I must tell you that you are truly a living "Dolly" to me . . . I DO feel the room swayin'! You radiate something on stage that has inspired me to do what I really love in life . . . each time I see your show, I actually feel as if Carol is my very close, personal friend. Thank you for sharing your gift!
City, State: NY, NY Comments: Richard, What can I say? Your performance at Peter's 50th birthday party made the evening an "event". I'm still getting calls and e-mails to thank me for inviting people to the party. Without exception, all the guests raved about your performance. I am forever grateful! Perry
City, State: Washington, DC Comments: Dear Ms Channing, We enjoyed your show immensely at the National Theater in Washington DC. Your interaction with the audience was absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much for a great evening of music, fun and laughter. We want to see you again. Best Regards, Ron J McMillan P.S. I believe there is someone called Richard Skipper who may be trying to impersonate you. I heard he wants to visit Washington DC, and from what I've heard he is doing a darned great job of it! :) |
