Richard Skipper Celebrates is where the entertainment world comes together!
If I believed in magic, I would say that the transformation of the Laurie Beechman Theater to a combination of Hollywood sound stage, Broadway musical and Golden Age TV variety show was the result of supernatural powers. Richard Skipper CELEBRATES, expertly produced by Russ Woolley, and starring Richard Skipper is a marvelously entertaining safe haven for audiences, performers and musicians to express themselves in an atmosphere of community and love. Richard is a true show business master who makes everyone in the room feel important. That's because he truly believes it, but more than that, he lives it every day. Do NOT miss an opportunity to experience the unique joy of any Richard Skipper CELEBRATES show! - Larry Kerchner Wilmington, DE
