City, State: San Jose, CA Comments: Richard, what an absolute JOY your show is! I've had the great good fortune to see Ms. Channing herself in her last two "Hello, Dolly!" productions in San Francisco; and I can tell you that your presentation of her is flawless - not a gesture is out of place. You present her with such joy and love that we all forget that we are not watching the real McCoy. Such talent! I look forward to seeing your next presentation of Ms. Channing - on Broadway, I hope. Very best regards, Linda
City, State: NYC Comments: Had a wonderful time at your show the other night. I think that this is one of your best shows ever and that you continue to top even yourself. Great to have the 5 piece band and back up singers - but you need a theater - your are way too big a personality for that room. I remember seeing you in Atlantic City and your talent fit that room to a "T" - Congrats on a sold-out run at Helen's and giving everyone who comes to see you, more than their money's worth! You continue to create more fans with every performance....much love, Linda
City, State: New york, NY Comments: Your new Carol Channing show was a phenomenal job. It's a theater piece that can travel, so I suspect you'll be living with it for a long time, here and elsewhere. Apart from that, I'd love to see some regional theater take the gamble and cast you in the "Hello, Dolly" role.
City, State: San Francisco, CA Website: www.luahadar.com Comments: I love Carol Channing. I grew up with her as an entertainment figure in my cultural life; she was always on TV, in the movies, on Broadway; I knew her songs. I always loved her humor, her unique style, the color of her voice. When I see Richard Skipper on stage, I FORGET I am not seeing Carol Channing. I am seeing the Carol Channing of my youth, and I remember that time with great nostalgia - the good kind. Richard understands and respects Carol Channing; he embodies her. I highly recommend that you let Richard Skipper take you away with his beautiful voice, his humor and his spirit; he's a joy. |
