Garrison Keiller - Prairie Home Companion 50th Anniversary

Garrison Keiller - Prairie Home Companion 50th Anniversary

Humorist, novelist, radio companion, mid-westerner to the core, and going full-speed racing at 80 – that’s Garrison Keillor. Keillor’s celebrated radio broadcast A Prairie Home Companion ran for 40 years. He wrote the comedy sketches and more, and invented a “little town that time forgot and the decades could not improve.” These days, his shows are packed with humor and song, plus the audience-favorite News from Lake Wobegon. He has written dozens of books – recently, Boom Town (a Lake Wobegon novel,) That Time of Year (a memoir,) a book of limericks, and Serenity at 70, Gaiety at 80 (reflections on why you should keep on getting older.) Several surprise guests will be joining Garrison when he returns to the AMT stage to celebrate A Prairie Home Companion 50th Anniversary.
