A Lone Star Christmas Carol

If you’re looking for a holiday treat, look no further. A Lone Star Christmas Carol takes Dickens’ classic tale and retells it with a distinctly Texas Twang, sure to set your toes a-tappin’ and bring a smile to your face and a tear to your eyes. Presented to you in concert with story and song by Gary & Donna, the same folks who recently brought us “Man Sitting in Chair Playing Guitar.”
"...music and songs were of such surprising quality they could compete at the CMA Awards or go into stores as Christmas classics."
Mary L. Clark - The Column
“..."Oh Ebenezer/Lie to Me" hints at the rhythmical complexity of Sondheim, and makes you want to holler out, 'Encore!' with its melodious harmonies and soaring sadness.”
Alexandra Bonifield - Critical Rant and Rave
“The music is the heart of this Texas-ized version of A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens' timeless story that has become a holiday cash cow (longhorn, in this case) for many theaters.”
