The Red Jacket Jamboree is a throw back radio variety show which is offered to American public radio networks[1] through PRX Radio Exchange. Hosted by Lena Dorey and Martin Achatz, two-time Poet Laureate of the Upper Peninsula,[2][3] the show shares stories, music, history and comedy that revolves around life in Michigan's Upper Peninsula,[4] especially that of the Keweenaw Peninsula, also known as Michigan's Copper Country. The show is recorded in front of a live audience at venues within the Keweenaw Peninsula for later radio broadcast. The show is named after Red Jacket, the original name for the village of Calumet, Michigan, where the show is headquartered.
The show is produced by Real People Media, Inc., a nonprofit organization which helps to share people's stories through the literary, visual, performing and media arts. Real People Media is headquartered in and the show is administered from, the Keweenaw Storytelling Center, which is located in a historic Woolworth's building in downtown Calumet. The Red Jacket Jamboree has received support from the Keweenaw National Historical Park, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs, the Michigan Humanities Council as well as from individual and corporate donors.
Two hour-long radio episodes are recorded during each theatrical performance. Each episode has its own distinct theme and stories, history and musical selections are chosen to help interpret themes.
