MANHATTAN — The man who has been called America's greatest storyteller is coming to Kansas State University as part of the McCain Performance Series. Garrison Keillor will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 27, in McCain Auditorium.

Keillor tells his stories with a wise, folksy style and dry sense of humor, all to give his audience new insights on love, modernity, nostalgia, politics, religion and other facets of daily life.
