Join Garrison Keillor at 80 for an evening of music, stories, and comedy on the theme of cheerfulness. This delightful show features Keillor's sung sonnets like "Prayer," "Longevity," and "Love Song," along with duets with Masse on classics by Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Tom Waits, Greg Brown, Mark Knopfler, and Ann Reed. Enjoy an extended medley of sung classic poems and jokes, along with Keillor's famous News from Lake Wobegon, reflecting on a generation that knew about outhouses, slaughtered chickens, hitchhiked, drove straight-stick transmissions, skated on outdoor rinks, and told jokes. The evening concludes with the audience singing a cappella to an impromptu medley of familiar songs like "America," "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," "Oh Susannah," "In My Life," and "Going to the Chapel." As Keillor says, "We are the last generation who knows all the words. When we’re gone, they’ll disappear." Don’t miss this heartwarming celebration of cheerfulness and nostalgia.SEASON TICKETS ON SALE MONDAY, JUNE 3RD AT 9:00 AM
