A Prairie Home Companion at Fitzgerald TheaterLong before it became a Robert Altman film, A Prairie Home Companion was Garrison Keillor’s folksy radio program that recalled the medium’s glory days. The Minnesota-based show (broadcast on NPR) frequently travels to different cities and features musical guests, fake commercials, theater, and more. Its down-home cheer and family-friendly humor may strike members of The Simpsons generation as a little corny—The Simpsons even lampooned Keillor on one memorable episode—but the show is massively popular, reaching 4 million listeners a week, and oozing with charm.Fitzgerald Theater 10 Exchange St. E., Twin Cities, MN
