January 16 – April 17, 2021
Lucy first pulled the football away from Charlie Brown on November 16, 1952. Known as “The Fall Classic” it became a rite of autumn in American pop culture. The annual “pulling away of the football” was shown nearly every year through the run of the Peanuts comic strip. Artist Charles M. Schulz created nearly 50 years of unique endings to the famous football gag.
The Upcountry History Museum in partnership with the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center will host Pigskin Peanuts, a retrospective exhibition that examines Schulz’s love of the game. Greenville, South Carolina will be the final stop on the Pigskin Peanuts international tour.
The 3000 square foot exhibit showcases Peanuts football-themed comic strips, artifacts and ephemera to illustrate how sports, specifically football, evolved and played a role in the Peanuts comics.
Charlie Brown’s missed kick wasn’t the only Peanuts football story. The exhibition, divided into five sections, examines the evolution of football in the Peanuts stories including Vintage Pigskin, The Fall Classic, Snoopy’s Gridiron Tales, Woodstock Plays Football, and Girls Rule (Sally, Peppermint Patty and Marcie).

This “theatrical landmark has transformed theater and the way we think about history” (The New York Times)
Hamilton is the story of America then, told by America now. Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and Broadway, Hamilton has taken the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton and created a revolutionary moment in theater — a musical that has had a profound impact on culture, politics, and education. With book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler, and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire, Hamilton is based on Ron Chernow’s acclaimed biography. It has won Tony®, Grammy®, and Olivier Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors.

Multi-platinum singer-songwriter Billy Montana takes the Genevieve’s stage to share his songs showcasing his signature talent for tapping into powerful emotion through lyrics.
A critically-acclaimed writer for some of country music’s biggest stars, Montana’s credits include Garth Brooks’ record-breaking single “More Than a Memory,” Sara Evans’ smash “Suds in the Bucket” and the Grammy-nominated “Bring On the Rain” recorded by Jo Dee Messina with Tim McGraw. His most recent chart topper, “Hard to Love,” is the title cut from Lee Brice’s 2012 album. With more than 100 published credits, the prolific lyricist has worked with Kenny Chesney, Martina McBride, Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton, Lee Ann Womack, Kellie Pickler, Kenny Rogers and many others. His music can be heard on his latest album release, Songs For Sale, as well as ABC’s hit TV show “Nashville.”
