Green Curtains: Songs of America Announcement

Green Curtains Presents: Songs of America

A Musical Journey Through the Soul of a Nation

McCORMICK, SC — This fall, Green Curtains invites you to experience America’s story like never before—with heart, harmony, and history.

Songs of America is a bold and moving live musical revue that brings to life the conflicts, courage, and characters that shaped our country. Inspired by the bestselling book by Tim McGraw and Jon Meacham, this original stage production blends historical narration with iconic music, transporting audiences through the milestones of American history—from The Star-Spangled Banner to John Fogerty’s Fortunate Son.

“This isn’t your typical musical,” says Ted Varner, director and producer of the production. “It’s a powerful musical review with stories told and sung by significant characters from key eras in the development of our country.”

Performance Schedule

  • Friday, October 17 – 7:00 p.m.

  • Saturday, October 18 – 7:00 p.m.

  • Sunday, October 19 – 3:00 p.m.

All performances will be held at the Savannah Lakes Village Recreation Center.

About the Show

Songs of America pairs unforgettable songs with the people who lived them—George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, soldiers, mothers, abolitionists, and everyday Americans navigating extraordinary moments. Each voice tells a story of hope, heartbreak, resistance, and resilience.

Audiences will hear—and feel—the power behind the music. “This show is part concert, part storytelling, and all truth,” adds Varner. “We hope people leave with a renewed sense of both pride and purpose.”

Arranged by acclaimed musician Victor Varner and performed by a cast of local and regional talent, including professional musicians live on stage, Songs of America is a tribute to the music that has carried us through war and peace, protest and progress.
