A revolutionary story of passion, unstoppable ambition, and the dawn of a new nation. HAMILTON is the epic saga that follows the rise of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton as he fights for honor, love, and a legacy that would shape the course of a nation. Based on Ron Chernow’s acclaimed biography and set to a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B, and Broadway, HAMILTON has had a profound impact on culture, politics, and education. HAMILTON features book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, direction by Thomas Kail, choreography by Andy Blankenbuehler, and musical supervision and orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire. In addition to its 11 Tony Awards, it has won Grammy®, Olivier Awards, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and an unprecedented special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors. HAMILTON is recommended for ages 10+ and contains some adult language and mature themes. Tickets $59-$199.

Arts on TAP
Arts on TAP
Ranging from a rare 1840 poem jar by enslaved potter David Drake (c. 1800 – c. 1870) to an evocative
2020 abstract painting by Frank Wimberley (born 1926), the GCMA African-American Collection spans
180 years of American history, highlighting such artists as Romare Bearden, Beauford Delaney, William H. Johnson, Jacob Lawrence, Alison Saar, Merton Simpson, Henry Ossawa Tanner, Kara Walker, Hale Woodruff, and many more. A selection of these important works can be found in the museum’s current exhibition Say It Loud.
Spartanburg artist Robert Urban’s latest mixed media works use trees “as a metaphor for family and the relationships we all hold dear within the family circle and beyond.” The contemporary landscapes will be shown in the “Push & Pull: New Work” exhibit Jan. 7 through Feb. 22, 2025, in the Solomon Gallery of the Artists Collective | Spartanburg.
An artist’s reception will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 16, as part of Spartanburg ArtWalk. The reception and exhibition viewing are free and open to the public. The 30-plus pieces in the show will be offered for purchase with prices ranging from $150 to $5,000.
“Nature, and specifically trees, are used as metaphors to represent the passage of time, within nature itself, of course, but also within our human relationships – our family, friends and communities,” says Urban, originally from Wisconsin. “The exhibition title refers to the many different forces and ways that we experience either a ‘push’ or a ‘pull’ – our interactions within nature, relationships and our communities.”

FIRST WEDNESDAYS
FIRST WEDNESDAYS 7:00 PM except for July when we have the annual Sierra Club picnic.
Location – Unitarian Universalist Congregation, 1 Edwin Pl, Asheville, NC 28801 (corner of Charlotte & Edwin)
A quick glance of Jeff Dunham’s childhood photos reveals the milestones of youth—birthdays, graduations, awkward first dates… very awkward first dates. Nothing unusual – except for the fact that in almost every photo, he’s joined by a dummy seated on his lap. Literally.

Arts on TAP
First Wednesday of each month, 8:00 pm
Like the music scene in cities like Chicago, New York, and San Francisco, where classical players have had a lot of success performing in casual venues more typically associated with pop genres, Spartanburg is working to be added to that list of cities!
Due to its success last year, the Petrie School of Music and Converse School of the Arts has again partnered with the Hub City Tap House to provide a series of performance events at the Hub City Tap House! Beginning at 8 pm on Wednesday, October 4, and then continuing the first Wednesday of each month, this series will be a family-friendly, free, way to offer high quality music in a relaxed atmosphere. Musical styles ranging from Opera, Classical Art Song, Chamber Music to Musical Theatre, Pop, New Music & Folk.

Play by Talene Monahon
Directed by Anne Kelly Tromsness
It’s 1606. William Shakespeare is plagued…with writer’s block. And also the actual plague, as he is holed up with his apprentice Francis without anything to do. Through the window climbs Jane Anger, a writer with a dream to change history. While Jane convinces Shakespeare to write KING LEAR, Anne Hathaway (his wife, not the one from DEVIL WEARS PRADA) arrives, having missed her husband for the past 10 years. Constricted to one room, what creativity and conflict will explode between these four? Can Shakespeare write his masterpiece? Will Francis be allowed to act in it despite his age (anywhere from 15 to 40, we’re totally not sure and he doesn’t seem to be either)? Will Jane get to publish her masterpiece? Will anyone ever respect Anne Hathaway?
Shows on Thur, Fri, and Sat are at 8pm. Shows on Sunday are 3pm.
Non-Musical: $35
Musical: $40
Reserved: Additional $5
