to
Senior Action 3715 East North Street, Greenville, South Carolina 29615
Get ready to laugh, cry and flat out have a great time at this festival of non-stop live history and fun for the whole family. Daily live shows and more are performed in costume by nationally acclaimed historical interpreters. It’s all outdoors, and the shows are FREE!
Step back in time to meet these brilliant American game changers – hear their stories – ask them how their world changed. Create a new nation with Ben Franklin. Turn darkness into light with Thomas Edison. Spark the electrical revolution with Nikola Tesla. Foresee cell phones and Wi-Fi with Hollywood’s Hedy Lamarr. And like Rosa Parks, demand your civil rights.
There’s nothing like experiencing history in a beautiful outdoor setting. Multiple outdoor shows daily in Upstate South Carolina at the Mauldin Cultural Center Amphitheater. Additional outdoor shows in North Carolina at the Warren Wilson College Pavilion and the Transylvania County Library Amphitheater.
There will be great story-telling, lots to laugh about, and deep secrets revealed. You’ll laugh – you’ll cry – you’ll have lots of questions. And they’ll be answered. Bring your stories. Share your experiences. Get inspired. Because you're a part of the show. It’s not just history – it’s personal.
