Rob Skinner One-Man Show to benefit Winchester Got Lunch

Rob Skinner, a Winchester resident, presents “SIGMUND SAYS,” a one-man show, with proceeds to benefit Winchester Got Lunch. The show will take place at the Regent Theatre in Arlington on February 8, 2015 at 7:30 p.m.

Combining music, comedy and social commentary, “Sigmund Says” is the new one-man show from the mind and lips of Rob Skinner. Rob will be joined at the historic Regent Theatre by the musicians of the Midlife Crisis All-Star Band – Michael Loria on guitar and Troy Lucia on piano – as well as some special guests, including Annie Bartlett.

Imagine if Stephen Sondheim got together with Will Ferrell for mojitos and a game of badminton. Now imagine something entirely different from that, and you have “Sigmund Says” – the new one-man show from the mind and lips of Rob Skinner. He sings, he muses, he shares things you’ll wish he hadn’t. But like a video of a gruesome accident, just try to look away. Audiences from Boston to New York (with no stops in between) have enthusiastically declared Rob a “dilettante” and his performances “bourgeois” – and it’s not just the French who like him. Combining music, comedy and social commentary, the performance is at times juvenile, but is not for kids.

Tickets are $30 each and all seats are reserved. Tickets can be purchased at https://regent.primetix.com/Tickets/?perfid=1495, or by calling the Regent Theatre at 781-646-4849. All proceeds from this performance will benefit Winchester Got Lunch. When the school year ends, so do federally subsidized lunches for kids in need. Winchester Got Lunch was formed to fill that gap, providing healthy lunches over the summer weeks for hundreds of families needing assistance. In the summer of 2014, 5,850 lunches were provided to the 130 school-aged children in the program. For more information about Winchester Got Lunch, visit winchestergotlunch.org.
