Introducing... Stand-Up for Good Charity Comedy Show 2026 featuring Eric O'Shea, E.J. Masicampo, and Ramona Holloway!
Get ready to laugh for a cause that truly matters on August 29. Pharos Parenting invites you to Stand-Up for Good, a night of clean, crowd-pleasing comedy at the Cain Center for the Arts in Cornelius. Every ticket you buy helps protect children and strengthen families in North Mecklenburg.
Hosting the evening is the one and only Ramona Holloway, Charlotte's beloved media personality and longtime co-host of the Matt and Ramona Show. With three decades in radio, TV, and event hosting under her belt, including three "Best Radio Personality" wins from Charlotte Magazine, Ramona brings warmth, wit, and more charm than a mic can handle.
Opening the show is E.J. Masicampo, a Wake Forest University psychology professor by day and rising stand-up star by night. The Winston-Salem-based comedian brings sharp, insightful humor about identity, fatherhood, and everyday life. In 2022, he was crowned North Carolina's Funniest Person.
Headlining the night is Eric O'Shea, an award-winning comedian with over 30 years on the road and more than 30 million views on his Dry Bar Comedy special. Known for his high-energy, family-friendly style, Eric has appeared on America's Got Talent, Comedy Central, and alongside some of the biggest names in comedy. His show is guaranteed laughs for everyone in the room.
All proceeds benefit Pharos Parenting and their child abuse prevention efforts in North Mecklenburg County.
