Why I Do This
After decades in entertainment, I've learned that people don't remember every song.
They remember how they felt.
Every performance is an opportunity to celebrate artists, preserve theatrical history, and remind audiences that kindness, generosity, and connection never go out of style.
I'd love to have you become part of that mission.
Warmly,
Richard Skipper

Who/What Are YOU Celebrating Today?
How Can I Celebrate YOU Today?
One suggestion
I would not call the top level "Presenting Sponsor."
I'd call it:
Legend Sponsor
That's uniquely yours.
Your levels could become:
- Friend of the Show — $250
- Patron Sponsor — $500
- Celebration Sponsor — $1,000
- Legend Sponsor — $2,500+
No one else has those levels. They're instantly recognizable as Richard Skipper Celebrates, and they reinforce your brand before a single song is sung.

Some Testimonials
From Deborah Stone:
I had the great good fortune to sponsor Richard Skipper Celebrates interview series for a month. Having thus exposed my name and brand to his audience, I found my social media pages were visited by more people than previously, thereby increasing my visibility to those who hadn't previously been aware of me. Richard is a friend, and I feel we both benefited from this sponsorship opportunity. Thank you, Richard!
From Ann Kittredge:
Dear Richard,
I want to thank you, Richard, for the wonderful entertainment you provide to your ever- expanding audience, especially last week in which I am grateful to have sponsored. I did it for a couple of reasons:
- Reach a larger audience for my upcoming shows
- Celebrate the launch of my album reIMAGINE
I like your style, and thought any person watching you could be the kind of person that I want to attract into my performance sphere. And I got so much more.
I hadn’t thought about the fact that these videos exist in perpetuity, so anytime someone watches them in the future, I continue to get exposure. I hadn’t considered that, because of your eclectic interests, you would draw a varied audience with your engaging subjects and guests. You went above and beyond what I expected from my sponsorship: you used ALL social media platforms to promote my album and upcoming work. Unexpected performance opportunities have come my way specifically related to my sponsorship of your shows. And the analytics for the week absolutely exceeded my expectations. That week alone received over 7900 views, 374 watching hours, and over 200 additional subscribers. That’s what I call a smart investment.
I also want to thank your guests last week, Sandra Bargman, Harlon Boll, Ruthie Darling, Jane Dorian, Miles Evans, Kassira McKee, Barbara Minkus, Parker Nolan and Alan Rode who took us on engaging journeys through their eyes into the worlds of environmentalism, movies, reminiscences of Jerry Herman, children’s books, cabaret, and an award-winning world-class musician.
Who could ask for anything more?
With great gratitude (and let’s do it again!),
Ann Kittredge
