Garrison Keillor and Erica Rhodes team up for an evening that brings together two generations of comedy. After more than 50 years in radio, including his celebrated run hosting A Prairie Home Companion, Keillor takes the stage alongside Rhodes, a successful stand-up comedian he describes as his sensible niece. The evening blends stand-up, humorous verse, limericks, songs, and stories as Rhodes attempts to help Keillor master the art of modern comedy.
