Radio Man | History Theatre

Radio Man

a new play by Garrison Keillor

songs by Garrison Keillor and Richard Dworsky

September 27–October 26, 2014

The “On Air” lights flash and the show begins. The Host, played by Pearce Bunting (HBO’s Boardwalk Empire), presides over a parade of singing groups, the private eye Guy Noir, the cowboys Dusty and Lefty, and the band of colorful characters of Lake Wobegon. It’s a night of rollicking humor and heartfelt revelations in the first full-length play written by America’s foremost storyteller and humorist. If you thought you knew everything about A Prairie Home Companion's creator, think again -- there's a surprise on every page!

Enjoyed by ages 14+
