Rich Purpura to me took me under his wing when I joined Disney Cruise Lines in 2006. I really enjoyed his company. When Rich was your friend you were safe in Disney Land. Everyone knew Rich. He is rich in personality, performance, in Comedy Magic and anecdotes and boy if you were out with Rich he acted as your security so you would not have to queue anywhere you went. Above all else, he was hilarious to have as a friend on and off stage.Rich talks about his time over here in the UK in the late 80's early 90's, working Windsor and The Albert Hall, working Comedy Clubs and the majority of his work on Cruise Ships Worldwide. The story of the Captain's Cocktail Party Fiasco has to be heard to be believed. Sit back and enjoy the Chicago way of my friend, Micky Mouse's friend Rich Purpura.
