  • Forever fantastic storyteller

    by Cyndi on 11/23/25The Carolina - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Garrison was fantastic - as always! We've been listening to his stories since the mid 90s but this was the first time hearing him in person. It was such a lovely treat!

  • Absolutely fabulous!

    by Sharon on 11/18/25The Carolina - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    What a wonderful time. Great performance. Mr. Keillor was fabulous. He was my Saturday evening entertainment for many years. The theater was gorgeous. Great cocktails!

  • Entertaining geriatric story telling.

    by Rhodie on 11/18/25The Carolina - CharlotteRating: 2 out of 5

    Program too long . Poor audio hand held microphone subject to aged drift. Storytelling entertaining .

  • Charming and nostalgic night

    by Karen on 11/18/25The Carolina - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    Mr. Keillor is the consummate story teller. He tells his stories and you imagine yourself sitting near the hearth of a warm fire, surrounded by loved ones. It’s a nice way to spend an evening!

  • Garrison Keillor

    by Kat on 11/18/25The Carolina - CharlotteRating: 5 out of 5

    First time to Carolina Theater since it's renovation, and it's a beautiful venue. Garrison Keillor was delightful!

  • Garrison has his nearly 83 years showing

    by Red on 7/22/25Uptown Theatre Napa - NapaRating: 4 out of 5

    Garrison was still entertaining but he's gotten two steps slower than the last time I saw him (about 10 years ago). He seemed to struggle as to what to say when, as if he was unsure of what tact he had intended to take. I wonder how much he preps for his shows; he seemed to decide on the spot what to say and do. Also, I was very surprised that he utilized only the stage right part of the stage. I felt badly for those on the stage left as he never crossed the center line and paced the right side of the stage. That was odd.

  • It was a wonderful evening!

    by LVLKTHO on 7/22/25Uptown Theatre Napa - NapaRating: 5 out of 5

    It was wonderful! Full of limericks, storytelling, audience participation, humor…. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

  • Most enjoyable

    by Jim on 2/14/25VBC Mars Music Hall - HuntsvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    I'm old enough (86) to really appreciate the memory of the soft-spoken Garrison Keillor. Every bit as good as the Saturday morning radio show which I definitely miss.

  • Great stories

    by He’s still got it! on 2/14/25VBC Mars Music Hall - HuntsvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    We loved the show. There’s still some news from Lake Wonegon and stories that take crazy fun turns. Thank you Mr. Keillor!

  • 6-foot-four on the Floor...Great Rapport!

    by Ken on 2/14/25VBC Mars Music Hall - HuntsvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    A lot funnier and insightful than I thought he would be. At first, I considered all the singing as just filler to pass the time; however, it didn't occur to me until later in the program that he knew his audience was full of Baptists who knew all the words to what he wanted them to sing. Plus, he definitely keeps up with current events. Hopefully, he'll come back at some point in the future before he turns 92.
