Scripts and bits from A Prairie Home Companion celebrate the secret society of men and women who possess excellent spelling and punctuation skills. (You know who you are.)
Selections include "The Six-Minute Hamlet," a tribute to Emily Dickinson, a Guy Noir adventure that exposes an MFA scam, a riveting "Professional Organization of English Majors" drama, and guests Billy Collins, Robert Bly, Roy Blount Jr., and Calvin Trillin.

The soundtrack to Robert Altman's take on Garrison Keillor's radio show features 25 songs. If you are an avid A Prairie Home Companion listener, you know what to expect: a delightful mix of music and fun by APHC regulars including the Guy's All Star Shoe Band, Robin & Linda Williams and Jearlyn Steele, among others, plus some amazing music by a diverse slate of guest performers. Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin duet as the singing Johnson sisters on "My Minnesota Home" and "Goodbye to my Mama." Woody Harrelson and John C. Reilly appear as Dusty and Lefty, the singing cowboys, and warble "Whoopi Ti Yi Yo" and the crowd pleasing but crusty song "Bad Jokes." Lindsay Lohan delivers "Frankie and Johnny".
