The variety show, which airs live every Saturday night, features an assortment of musical guests, comedy sketches, and Garrison Keillor’s signature monologue “The News from Lake Wobegon,” for which Keillor won a Grammy Award in 1988. Keillor’s other awards include a National Humanities Medal from the National Endowment for the Humanities and a Medal for Spoken Language from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.

Heather Maase, a regular featured performer on A Prairie Home Companion, gained popularity as a member of the Juno Award-winning folk trio The Wailin’ Jennys. She has released two successful solo albums and performed on renowned stages with the likes of Sheryl Crow, Wynton Marsalis, and noted jazz pianists Jed Wilson and Dick Hyman.

  • A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (Guest Post)*
    “A Prairie Home Companion”: First Broadcast (July 6, 1974) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Chuck Howell (guest post)* Garrison Keillor “Well, it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, Minnesota, my hometown, out on the edge of the prairie.” On July 6, 1974, before a crowd of maybe a dozen people (certainly less than 20), a live radio variety program went on the air from the campus of Macalester College in St. Paul, MN. It was called “A Prairie Home Companion,” a name which at once evoked a sense of place and a time now past--recalling the “Little House on the Prairie” books, the once popular magazine “The Ladies Home Companion” or “The Prairie Farmer,” the oldest agricultural publication in America (founded 1841). The “Prairie Farmer” later bought WLS radio in Chicago from Sears, Roebuck & Co. and gave its name to the powerful clear channel station, which blanketed the middle third of the country from 1928 until its sale in 1959. The creator and host of the program, Garrison Keillor, later confided that he had no nostalgic intent, but took the name from “The Prairie Home Cemetery” in Moorhead, MN. His explanation is both self-effacing and humorous, much like the program he went on to host, with some sabbaticals and detours, for the next 42 years. Origins Gary Edward “Garrison” Keillor was born in Anoka, MN on August 7, 1942 and raised in nearby Brooklyn Park. His family were not (contrary to popular opinion) Lutherans, instead belonging to a strict fundamentalist religious sect known as the Plymouth Brethren.

    Experience the Unforgettable FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: In-Fin Tuan, 651.292.4323 x106 August 15, 2014 [email protected] History Theatre presents Garrison Keillor’s ‘Radio Man’ First full-length play by America’s foremost storyteller and humorist gives hilarious glimpse into A Prairie Home Companion onstage and off (SAINT PAUL, MN) History Theatre’s 2014-2015 season will include four world premieres, beginning with Garrison Keillor’s first full-length play, Radio Man, opening September 27. With Pearce Bunting (of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire) playing The Host, Radio Man will give audiences a hilarious glimpse of “A Prairie Home Companion” onstage, offstage, and through the eyes of the show’s enigmatic creator. This new play written by Minnesota Public Radio icon Garrison Keillor looks back on 40 years of "A Prairie Home Companion" through a quirky journey into the mind and memories of its curious creator. The "On Air" lights flash and a show begins, but the quixotic host, played by Pearce Bunting (Boardwalk Empire), is distracted by visits from the characters of "A Prairie Home Companion" along with producers, executives, and crew . The lines between on-stage and off-stage, imagination and reality are blurred and the host offers them all this simple advice: "Lighten up." Song and dance is the cure. Cheerfulness is a choice. Sorrow is generic: what truly shines is comedy. “When I first took the job as Artistic Director, said Ron Peluso, “I told Garrison Keillor if you ever want to write something for History Theatre, just let me know.” Nearly twenty years later, the time was ripe – as Mr.
