"CAROL
CHANNING" (SORT OF) RETURNS TO THE CROWN AND ANCHOR
Richard
Skipper, one of the most respected and acclaimed celebrity singer/actor/impersonators,
took Provincetown by storm in May of 2002 when he appeared at THE
CROWN & ANCHOR (247 Commercial Street, Provincetown, MA) as part of
the annual CABARETFEST! (http://www.cabaretfest.com/).
He was immediately asked to return with his show "An Evening with
Carol Channing," and will be appearing at this legendary P-town club
in a two-week run, Thursdays through Saturdays, August 15th through
the 31st, all shows at 8:00 pm. There is a $20 cover charge.
The show is a fully staged
and choreographed, 90-minute musical montage celebrating the career
and persona of this unique, theatrical legend. Blending Channing standards,
such as, "Hello Dolly," with original material and other familiar
songs sung by Skipper in his powerful Broadway voice, the musical
evening surveys Channing's life with many stops along the way for
Skipper's unique, and riotous, "ad-lib" interactions with the audience.
Mr. Skipper is a two time
recipient of the MAC (Manhattan Association of Cabaret) Award for
"Outstanding Achievement in Impersonation" and the Backstage Bistro
award for best performer. He was named as one of the Top Ten Cabaret
Performers by The Cabaret Hotline and as "one of the Top of the Century
Premiere Cabaret Acts" by Cabaret Scenes Magazine.
Skipper returns to THE
CROWN AND ANCHOR after recent engagements at various venues throughout
the East Coast,the Ontario Hilton and New York's Hudson River Theatre.
In each of those venues, he has played to sold-out houses and received
outstanding reviews.
