Richard Skipper the fabulous entertainer, host, producer, writer & live entertainment historian will bring his show “Richard Skipper Celebrates! Life Lessons From Legends” to Feinstein’s At The Nikko in San Francisco on Friday October 30th at 8P. The Halloween Eve engagement is part of Skipper’s 2026 Autumn Tour following a sold-out NYC performance at The Laurie Beechman Theatre. Joining him in San Francisco will be special guest Matthew Martin as Judy Garland with Tom Shaw on piano. At a time when so much of our entertainment is experienced through a screen Skipper is bringing people together in a room & making them part of the evening. Life Lessons From Legends combines music, storytelling, conversation & audience participation in a show that changes every time Richard steps onstage. Before the show begins the audience is invited to submit questions that are selected at random throughout the evening opening the door to stories, songs, memories, laughter & moments that even he cannot predict. Skipper stated, “This is not a show you simply sit back and watch. The audience helps create the evening. I know where we are beginning, but once those questions start coming out, none of us knows exactly where we are going. That is part of the fun.” Audiences have responded to that connection describing the experience simply as a warm hug of a show while others have evoked the great days of television talk & variety programs like the days of Merv Griffin or Mike Douglas. For Richard those reactions get to the heart of what the show is about creating a room where people feel welcomed, included & part of something that is happening only once.
