An unexpected, cherished gift from a handful of our amazing cast members! Our hearts are full. ❤️❤️🎄We're thankful for the love and support from near and far during this slightly-different Christmas season, and we're hopeful we'll be able to celebrate together at the 2026 Carolina Christmas Show!
"Mario and Lucinda,
Year after year, you have filled the season with Christmas spirit, bringing warmth, joy, and magic to performers and audiences alike. Your generosity of heart and love for what you do have made the holidays brighter for so many of us! This year, it's our turn to give a little Christmas spirit back to you to reflect even a fraction of the joy you've shared and to remind you how deeply you are loved and appreciated! Merry Christmas!
Love, Ness, Victor, Jeanie, Tiffanie, Reggie, Karen, and Brad on the keys!"

Thank y'all for your messages, prayers, and continued support over the past several months. As many of you know, we won't be doing the Carolina Christmas Show this December. We're about four months into Mario's battle with lymphoma cancer, and we're hopeful that we'll be ready for shows sometime next year.
Wishing you a peaceful Thanksgiving, a joyful Christmas, and a blessed New Year!
With love & gratitude, Lucinda & Mario, Carolina Onstage 🎄❤️
