St. Paul, Minn. ? Here’s the news from Lake Wobegon: Garrison Keillor’s “A Prairie Home Companion” is looking for a new home.

Keillor said the show will leave the Fitzgerald Theater, which Minnesota Public Radio bought for the show in 1980.

“We have no plans to do the Fitz after Jan. 1 in the current season,” Keillor said Wednesday.

Nothing yet is planned for the fall of 2006. He added. “Our 2006-2007 season is an utter blank; I have no idea where we’ll be or what we’ll be doing.”

St. Paul has been the show’s permanent home since 1992, when Keillor returned from a five-year absence. “Prairie Home” started broadcasting from the Fitzgerald, then known as the World, in 1978.

The “Prairie Home Companion” movie was filmed at the theater this summer.

The show is trying to find new places to broadcast. Possible venues include the Ted Mann Concert Hall at the University of Minnesota and the State and Orpheum theaters in Minneapolis, Keillor said.
