Garrison Keillor

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Garrison Keillor did "A Prairie Home Companion" for forty years, wrote fiction and comedy, invented a town called Lake Wobegon where all the children are above average, even though he himself grew up evangelical in a small separatist flock where all the children expected the imminent end of the world. He's busy in retirement, having written a memoir and a book of limericks and is at work on a musical and a Lake Wobegon screenplay, and he continues to do "The Writers Almanac" sent out daily to Internet subscribers (free).

Garrison Keillor Tonight is an evening of stand-up, storytelling, audience song, and poetry. One man, one microphone. There are sung sonnets, limericks and musical jokes, and the thread that runs through it is the beauty of growing old.

"Fans laughed, applauded and sang along throughout Sunday night's two-hour show" -Jeff Baenen, AP News

"His shows can, for a couple of hours, transform an audience of even so-called coastal elites into a small-town community with an intimacy only radio and its podcast descendants can achieve" -Chris Barton, LA Times

"[Keillor is] an expert at making you feel at home with his low-key, familiar style. Comfortable is his specialty." -Betsie Freeman, Omaha-World Herald
