Charlie Brown is the central protagonist of the long-running comic stripPeanuts, syndicated in daily and Sunday newspapers in numerous countries all over the world. Depicted as a "lovable loser," Charlie Brown is one of the great American archetypes and a popular and widely recognized cartoon character. Charlie Brown is the leader of the Peanuts gang.
Charlie Brown is characterized as a person who frequently suffers, and as a result, is usually nervous and lacks self-confidence. He shows both pessimistic and optimistic attitudes: on some days, he is reluctant to go out because his day might just be spoiled, but on others, he hopes for the best and tries as much as he can to accomplish things.
The character's creator, Charles M. Schulz, has said of the character that "[He] must be the one who suffers, because he is a caricature of the average person. Most of us are much more acquainted with losing than winning." Despite this, Charlie Brown does not always suffer, as he has experienced some happy moments and victories through the years, and he has sometimes uncharacteristically shown self-assertiveness despite his frequent nervousness.
Brown played as a defender over eight seasons for Collingwood in the VFL. In his second season, Brown won a premiership with Collingwood in their Grand Final win over Fitzroy.
Brown is not to be confused with another Charlie Brown who played 12 games with Carlton in 1898.

Tony Russell "Charles" Brown (September 13, 1922 – January 21, 1999) was an American blues singer and pianist whose soft-toned, slow-paced blues-club style influenced the development of blues performance during the 1940s and 1950s. He had several hit recordings, including "Driftin' Blues" and "Merry Christmas Baby".
John Gordon was credited with the book of the show, but according to Gesner's foreword in the published script, John Gordon is a "collective pseudonym" that covers Gesner, the cast members, and the production staff, all of whom worked together to assemble the script.
History
During the early 1960s, Gesner had begun writing songs based on Charles Schulz’s Peanuts comic strip characters, but was unable to get permission from the United Features Syndicate to use the characters in his songs. Eventually Gesner sent Schulz a tape of some of the songs and Gesner soon had permission to record them, which he did in 1966.Orson Bean sang the role of Charlie Brown, Clark Gesner sang Linus, and Bill Hinnant sang Snoopy (he reprised his role in the Off-Broadway production).
The program opens with the other Peanuts characters singing the title song to Charlie Brown.
In the next scene, Schroeder plays Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" and Lucy sings along. She tries to tell him that they should get married. Schroeder ignores her, then Lucy says, "My Aunt Marian was right, never try to discuss marriage with a musician."
Charlie Brown hopes for the first time to be able to keep a kite but he once again fails. Sally writes a letter to Ann Flanders about the Valentine's Day card she gets.

At the time, Gesner had no plans for a musical based on this pre-production "concept album." However, producer Arthur Whitelaw, who would later go on to write another musical based on Peanuts, encouraged Gesner to turn the album into a musical.[4]
The stage adaptation of the concept album, entitled You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, went into rehearsal in New York City on February 10, 1967.[5] Prior to its opening, the musical had no actual libretto; it was several vignettes with a musical number for each one
On March 7, 1967, the musical premiered off-Broadway at Theatre 80 in the East Village, featuring Gary Burghoff as Charlie Brown, Skip Hinnant as Schroeder, Reva Rose as Lucy, Bob Balaban as Linus, Karen Johnson as Patty (an early Peanuts character not to be confused with Peppermint Patty), and Bill Hinnant as Snoopy.[6][7] Joseph Hardy directed and choreographer Patricia Birch was billed as "Assistant to the Director". Joe Raposo, later of Sesame Street fame, was billed as "Music Director" and composer of incidental music for the show. This production of You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown lasted 1,597 performances, closing on February 14, 1971

Charlie Brown is the central protagonist of the long-running comic stripPeanuts, syndicated in daily and Sunday newspapers in numerous countries all over the world. Depicted as a "lovable loser," Charlie Brown is one of the great American archetypes and a popular and widely recognized cartoon character. Charlie Brown is the leader of the Peanuts gang.
Charlie Brown is characterized as a person who frequently suffers, and as a result, is usually nervous and lacks self-confidence. He shows both pessimistic and optimistic attitudes: on some days, he is reluctant to go out because his day might just be spoiled, but on others, he hopes for the best and tries as much as he can to accomplish things.
The character's creator, Charles M. Schulz, has said of the character that "[He] must be the one who suffers, because he is a caricature of the average person. Most of us are much more acquainted with losing than winning." Despite this, Charlie Brown does not always suffer, as he has experienced some happy moments and victories through the years, and he has sometimes uncharacteristically shown self-assertiveness despite his frequent nervousness.
[LINUS] I really don't think you have anything to worry about, Charlie Brown. After all, science has shown that a person's character isn't really established until he's at least five years old. [SALLY (overlapping)] The only thing wrong with my big brother, Charlie Brown, is his lack of confidence; his inferiority and lack of confidence. His clumsiness, his inferiority, his lack of confidence. His stupidity his clumsiness, his inferiority and his lack of confidence, his... [SCHROEDER (overlapping)] Did you know that Charlie Brown has never pitched a winning baseball game, never been able to keep a kite in the air, never won a game of checkers and never successfully punted a football? Sometimes I marvel at his consistency. [LUCY (overlapping)] Now Charlie Brown has what you call a Failure Face, Linus. Notice how it has failure written all over it. Study it carefully. You rarely see such a good example. [CHARLIE BROWN (overlapping)] Some days I wake up early to watch the sunrise, and I think how beautiful it is, and how my life lies before me, and I get a very positive feeling about things. Like this morning for instance; the sky's so clear and the sun's so bright. How can anything go wrong on a day like this? I'm late! [SNOOPY] Woof! [ALL (except Charlie Brown)] You're a good man, Charlie Brown You're the kind of reminder we need You have humility, nobility and a sense of honor that is very Rare indeed. [SNOOPY] Woof! [OTHERS] You're a good man, CHarlie Brown And we know you will go very far Yes it's hard to believe Almost frightening to conceive What a good man you are. [SCHROEDER] You are kind. [OTHERS] You are kind to all the animals And every little bird With a heart of gold You believe what you're told... [LUCY] Every single solitary word [OTHERS] You bravely face adversity You're cheerful through the day You're thoughtful Brave and couteous [LUCY] And you also have some faults But for the moment let's just say [OTHERS] That you're a good man, Charlie Brown You're a prince And a prince could be king With a heart such as yours You could open any doors You could go out and do anything You could be King Charlie Brown You could be king! [CHARLIE BROWN] Everybody says to me: [OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown [CHARLIE BROWN] Every voice in harmony [OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown [CHARLIE BROWN] All I need is one more try Gotta get that kite to fly And I'm not the kind of guy Who gives up easily Wonder why they stop to say: [OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown [CHARLIE BROWN] Never liked me, anyway [OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown [CHARLIE BROWN] Trying not to rock the boat Not to make a scene A good man? Yes But I confess I don't know what they mean I wanna rise like I should And do everything right But I lie awake at night... With questions in my ear I want to join the dance [OTHERS] Oooh Never sleep Oooh Loud and deep Oooh Take the leap [CHARLIE BROWN] But the answer isn't clear. Than I hear: [OTHERS] Charlie Brown... Charlie Brown... You're a good man, Charlie Brown You're a good man, Charlie Brown [SCHROEDER] Get on the bus [LUCY] Get on the bus [LINUS] Go ahead, get on the bus, Charlie Brown! [SALLY] Don't wanna be late for school! [OTHERS] That's right! [CHARLIE BROWN] Don't wanna be late! [ALL] Don't wanna be late for school! [SNOOPY] Woof! [OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown You're the kind Of reminder we need You have humility, Nobility, And a sense of honor That is very rare indeed [CHARLIE BROWN] There they go again Don't know what they mean I'm not good, I'm not bad I'm somewhere In between [SNOOPY] Woof! [OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown [CHARLIE BROWN] I don't understand You're a prince And a prince could be king With a heart such as yours You could open any doors You could go out And do anything You could be King, Charlie Brown You could be King! [CHARLIE BROWN] "Nothing lasts forever" [OTHERS] You could be king [CHARLIE] "All good things must end" I've memorized That phrase by heart. So tell me, I need to know it... [OTHERS] Believe it And you were born for this part You're a good man, Charlie Brown! [CHARLIE] When do the Good things start? [LUCY/SCHROEDER] You're a good man, Charlie Brown [LINUS/SALLY] Bravely facing Adversity You can open up [SNOOPY] Oh, You're a good man [LUCY/SCHROEDER] You're a good man, Charlie Brown [ALL] You're ad good man, Charlie Brown!
