Broadcast from Interlochen, Michigan (Weekly Radio Variety - Music program) - July 7, 2012

as announced by way of Michigan LIVE! -- www.mlive.com/

In Radio Personality (American Public Media) Garrison Keillor’s Lake Wobegon, the women are strong, the men are good looking, and all the children are above average.

At Interlochen Fine Arts Camp (state of Michigan), it goes without saying that Keillor’s observation about children is as true as anywhere else.

Sage DeAgro-Ruopp, a vocalist from Traverse City and an Interlochen Arts Academy student, will perform along with Academy alumnus, trumpeter Theo Van Dyck, sharing the microphone on July 7, 2012 with Guy Noir, Private Eye, and Dusty and Lefty in The Lives of the Cowboys.

A string octet of four Interlochen faculty – violinists Susanna Perry Gilmore and Timothy Shiu, violist Leonard Schranze and cellist Astrid Schween – and four students – violinists Rachel Gravels and Andrew Cheshire, violist Anders Cornell, and cellist Harry Wilde Greer.

A Prairie Home Companion

The 6-foot, 3-inch tall Keillor has appeared frequently in Michigan, most recently in January in Saginaw’s Temple Theatre, though that show was just for locals, featuring Keillor by himself.
Keillor, who turns 70 in August 2012 , toyed with the idea of retiring in 2013, but in January he said his plans are on hold.
debuted in 1974, and, apart from a short hiatus in the late 1980s, Keillor has been delivering the news from Lake Wobegon , the little town that time forgot.
