The Academy Center of the Arts is excited to announce History That Doesn’t Suck, a captivating live performance by Professor Greg Jackson, on Saturday, January 10, 2026, at 7:30 PM at the Historic Academy Theatre.

Adapted from Jackson’s top-ranked podcast, this 100-minute show transforms the first century of American history into a thrilling journey. Through live music, multimedia, and dynamic storytelling, audiences will experience the Revolution, the birth of a nation, and the Civil War in a way that is as entertaining as it is enlightening.

Dr. Jackson, a PhD historian and creator of the acclaimed History That Doesn’t Suck® podcast (with millions of downloads worldwide), has made it his mission to present American history in a way that is accessible, engaging, and unforgettable. His expertise has landed him frequent appearances as a documentary commentator, including on the HISTORY® Channel’s Abraham Lincoln series, produced by Doris Kearns Goodwin and featuring President Barack Obama.

This isn’t your typical lecture—it’s history as it should be told: funny, powerful, and deeply human.
