Skewness of the logarithm of a gamma random variable Consider gamma random variable $X\sim\Gamma(\alpha, \theta)$. There are neat formulas for the mean, variance, and skewness:
\begin{align}
\mathbb E[X]&=\alpha\theta\\
\operatorname{Var}[X]&=\alpha\theta^2=1/\alpha\cdot\mathbb E[X]^2\\
\operatorname{Skewness}[X]&=2/\sqrt{\alpha}
\end{align}
Consider now a log-transformed random variable $Y=\log(X)$. Wikipedia gives formulas for the mean and the variance:
\begin{align}
\mathbb E[Y]&=\psi(\alpha)+\log(\theta)\\
\operatorname{Var}[Y]&=\psi_1(\alpha)\\
\end{align}
via digamma and trigamma functions which are defined as the first and the second derivatives of the logarithm of the gamma function.
What is the formula for the skewness?
Will tetragamma function appear?
(What made me wonder about this is a choice between lognormal and gamma distributions, see Gamma vs. lognormal distributions. Among other things, they differ in their skewness properties. In particular, skewness of the log of lognormal is trivially equal to zero. Whereas skewness of the log of gamma is negative. But how negative?..)
 A: I. Direct computation
Gradshteyn & Ryzhik [1] (sect 4.358, 7th ed) list explicit closed forms for $$\int_0^\infty x^{\nu-1}e^{-\mu x}(\ln x)^p dx$$ for $p=2,3,4$ while the $p=1$ case is done in 4.352 (assuming you regard expressions in $\Gamma, \psi$ and $\zeta$ functions as closed form) -- from which it is definitely doable up to kurtosis; they give the integral for all $p$ as a derivative of a gamma function so presumably it's feasible to go higher. So skewness is certainly doable but not especially "neat".
Details of the derivation of the formulas in 4.358 are in [2]. I'll quote the formulas given there since they're slightly more succinctly stated and put 4.352.1 in the same form.
Let $\delta= \psi(a)-\ln \mu$. Then:
\begin{align}
\int_0^\infty x^{a-1} e^{-\mu x} \ln x \,dx 
&=\frac{\Gamma(a)}{\mu^a}\left\{ \delta \right\} \\
\int_0^\infty x^{a-1} e^{-\mu x} \ln^2\!x \,dx 
&=\frac{\Gamma(a)}{\mu^a}\left\{ \delta^2+\zeta(2,a) \right\} \\
\int_0^\infty x^{a-1} e^{-\mu x} \ln^3\!x \,dx 
&=\frac{\Gamma(a)}{\mu^a}\left\{ \delta^3+3\zeta(2,a)\delta-2\zeta(3,a) \right\} \\
\int_0^\infty x^{a-1} e^{-\mu x} \ln^4\!x \,dx 
&=\frac{\Gamma(a)}{\mu^a}\left\{ \delta^4+6\zeta(2,a)\delta^2-8\zeta(3,a)\delta + 3\zeta^2(2,a)+6\zeta(4,a)) \right\}
\end{align}
where $\zeta(z,q)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{1}{(n+q)^z}$ is the Hurwitz zeta function (the Riemann zeta function is the special case $q=1$).
Now on to the moments of the log of a gamma random variable.
Noting firstly that on the log scale the scale or rate parameter of the gamma density is merely a shift-parameter, so it has no impact on the central moments; we may take whichever one we're using to be 1.
If $X\sim \text{Gamma}(\alpha,1)$ then $$E(\log^{p}\!X) = \frac{1}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\int_0^\infty \log^{p}\!x\, x^{\alpha-1} e^{-x} \,dx.$$
We can set $\mu=1$ in the above integral formulas, which gives us raw moments; we have $E(Y)$, $E(Y^2)$, $E(Y^3)$, $E(Y^4)$.
Since we have eliminated $\mu$ from the above, without fear of confusion we're now free to re-use $\mu_k$ to represent the $k$-th central moment in the usual fashion. We may then obtain the central moments from the raw moments via the usual formulas.
Then we can obtain the skewness and kurtosis as $\frac{\mu_3}{\mu_2^{3/2}}$ and $\frac{\mu_4}{\mu_2^{2}}$.

A note on terminology
It looks like Wolfram's reference pages write the moments of this distribution (they call it ExpGamma distribution) in terms of the polygamma function.
By contrast, Chan (see below) calls this the log-gamma distribution.

II. Chan's formulas via MGF
Chan (1993) [3] gives the mgf as the very neat $\Gamma(\alpha+t)/\Gamma(\alpha)$. 
(A very nice derivation for this is given in Francis' answer, using the simple fact that the mgf of $\log(X)$ is just $E(X^t)$.)
Consequently the moments have fairly simple forms. Chan gives:
$$E(Y)=\psi(\alpha)$$
and the central moments as 
\begin{align}
E(Y-\mu_Y)^2 &= \psi'(\alpha) \\ 
E(Y-\mu_Y)^3 &= \psi''(\alpha) \\ 
E(Y-\mu_Y)^4 &= \psi'''(\alpha) 
\end{align}
and so the skewness is $\psi''(\alpha)/(\psi'(\alpha)^{3/2})$ and kurtosis is $\psi'''(\alpha)/(\psi'(\alpha)^{2})$. Presumably the earlier formulas I have above should simplify to these.
Conveniently, R offers digamma ($\psi$) and trigamma ($\psi'$) functions as well as the more general polygamma function where you select the order of the derivative. (A number of other programs offer similarly convenient functions.)
Consequently we can compute the skewness and kurtosis quite directly in R:
skew.eg <- function(a) psigamma(a,2)/psigamma(a,1)^(3/2)
kurt.eg <- function(a) psigamma(a,3)/psigamma(a,1)^2

Trying a few values of a ($\alpha$ in the above), we reproduce the first few rows of the table at the end of Sec 2.2 in Chan [3], except that the kurtosis values in that table are supposed to be excess kurtosis, but I just calculated kurtosis by the formulas given above by Chan; these should differ by 3. 
(E.g. for the log of an exponential, the table says the excess kurtosis is 2.4, but the formula for $\beta_2$ is $\psi'''(1)/\psi'(1)^2$ ... and that is 2.4.)
Simulation confirms that as we increase sample size, the kurtosis of a log of an exponential is converging to around 5.4 not 2.4. It appears that the thesis possibly has an error.
Consequently, Chan's formulas for central moments appear to actually be the formulas for the cumulants (see the derivation in Francis' answer). This would then mean that the skewness formula was correct as is; because the second and third cumulants are equal to the second and third central moments.
Nevertheless these are particularly convenient formulas as long as we keep in mind that kurt.eg is giving excess kurtosis.

A: The moment generating function $M(t)$ of $Y=\ln X$ is helpful in this case, since it has a simple algebraic form. By the definition of m.g.f., we have $$\begin{aligned}M(t)&=\operatorname{E}[e^{t\ln X}]=\operatorname{E}[X^t]\\
&=\frac{1}{\Gamma(\alpha)\theta^\alpha}\int_0^\infty x^{\alpha+t-1}e^{-x/\theta}\,dx\\
&=\frac{\theta^{t}}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\int_0^\infty y^{\alpha+t-1}e^{-y}\,dy\\
&=\frac{\theta^t\Gamma(\alpha+t)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}.\end{aligned}$$ 
Let's verify the expectation and the variance you gave. Taking derivatives, we have $$M'(t)=\frac{\Gamma'(\alpha+t)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\theta^t+\frac{\Gamma(\alpha+t)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\theta^t\ln(\theta)$$ and $$M''(t)=\frac{\Gamma''(\alpha+t)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\theta^t+\frac{2\Gamma'(\alpha+t)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\theta^t\ln(\theta)+\frac{\Gamma(\alpha+t)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\theta^t\ln^2(\theta).$$ Hence, $$\operatorname{E}[Y]=\psi^{(0)}(\alpha)+\ln(\theta),\qquad\operatorname{E}[Y^2]=\frac{\Gamma''(\alpha)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}+2\psi^{(0)}(\alpha)\ln(\theta)+\ln^2(\theta).$$ It follows then $$\operatorname{Var}(Y)=\operatorname{E}[Y^2]-\operatorname{E}[Y]^2=\frac{\Gamma''(\alpha)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}-\left(\frac{\Gamma'(\alpha)}{\Gamma(\alpha)}\right)^2=\psi^{(1)}(\alpha).$$
To find the skewness, note the cumulant generating function (thanks @probabilityislogic for the tip) is $$K(t)=\ln M(t)=t\ln\theta+\ln\Gamma(\alpha+t)-\ln\Gamma(\alpha).$$ The first cumulant is thus simply $K'(0)=\psi^{(0)}(\alpha)+\ln(\theta)$. Recall that $\psi^{(n)}(x)=d^{n+1}\ln\Gamma(x)/dx^{n+1}$, so the subsequent cumulants are $K^{(n)}(0)=\psi^{(n-1)}(\alpha)$, $n\geq2$. The skewness is therefore $$\frac{\operatorname{E}[(Y-\operatorname{E}[Y])^3]}{\operatorname{Var}(Y)^{3/2}}=\frac{\psi^{(2)}(\alpha)}{[\psi^{(1)}(\alpha)]^{3/2}}.$$
As a side note, this particular distribution appeared to have been thoroughly studied by A. C. Olshen in his Transformations of the Pearson Type III Distribution, Johnson et al.'s Continuous Univariate Distributions also has a small piece about it. Check those out.
