Genre: Drama, Comedy
Tagline: Radio like you've never seen it before.
Plot: About a fictitious radio variety show that has managed to survive in the age of television. The Johnson Sisters, Yolanda (Meryl Streep) and Rhonda (Lily Tomlin) are a country duet act that has survived the county-fair circuit, and Meryl’s daughter, Lola (Lindsay Lohan), gets her big chance to sing on the show and then forgets the words. Guy Noir (Kevin Kline) is a private eye down on his luck who works as a backstage doorkeeper, and Dusty (Woody Harrelson) and Lefty (John C. Reilly) are the Old Trailhands, a singing cowboy act. Add an angel (Virginia Madsen) and the Axeman (Tommy Lee Jones) and a pregnant stagehand (Maya Rudolph) and the hangdog emcee (Keillor), and you have a playful story set on a rainy Saturday night in St. Paul, Minnesota, where fans file into the Fitzgerald Theater to see “A Prairie Home Companion,” a staple of radio station WLT, not knowing that WLT has been sold to a Texas conglomerate and that tonight’s show will be the last.
