Garrison Keillor’s, “A Prairie Home Companion: The Rhubarb Tour” is set to perform at the Oregon State Fair on Wednesday, August 27, 2008. The variety-show format is normally performed in front of theater audiences and broadcast live on over 580 radio stations throughout the country. Since 1972, Garrison Keillor and A Prairie Home Companion have entertained audiences with comedy sketches and a wide variety of music.

A Prairie Home Companion is heard by more than 4 million listeners each week on some 580 public radio stations, and abroad on America One and the Armed Forces Networks in Europe and the Far East. Garrison recalls, "When the show started, it was something funny to do with my friends, and then it became an achievement that I hoped would be successful, and now it's a good way of life."
