Join the celebration of A Prairie Home Companion’s 40th anniversary through a quirky and satiric journey into the memories of its creator. 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 people of Lake Wobegon arguing about morality and a bag of frozen peas. The lines between imagination and reality are blurred as a young boy reminisces about his radio dreams, a producer chastises the host, and the stage manager somehow keeps the show rolling along. It’s a night of rollicking humor in the first full-length play written by America’s foremost storyteller and humorist.

History Theatre Frequently Asked Questions FAQ

History Theatre is at 30 East 10th Street, St. Paul, MN.

History Theatre entertains, educates, and engages through creating, developing, and producing new and existing works that explore Minnesota's past and the diverse American experience. Its work provides a unique lens which links our past to the present, explores our common heritage, and illuminates our understanding of what it means to be American. Since its founding in 1978 by Lynn Lohr and Lance Belville, the company has staged more than 100 world premieres, working with nationally recognized playwrights including Jeffrey Hatcher, Eric Simonson, Kevin Kling, Craig Wright, Frank McCourt, Doris Baizley, Melanie Marnich, Kim Hines, John Olive, and Kira Obolensky. From a harrowing slave journey to St. Paul in Adrift on the Mississippi to an urban musical celebration of the Twin Cities in Snapshots: Life in the City, from the rock 'n' roll biography Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story to the dark, complex A Piece of the Rope about Minnesota's first public execution, History Theatre has moved audiences to rediscover, relive, and respect every piece of their history.
