Ethno-cultural mandate or ethno-cultural casting statement:
The Station Arts Centre is committed to diversity in its casting and
welcomes submissions from all ethnic/cultural backgrounds.

Additional information:
Tent Meeting is a funny and moving story about faith – or the lack of it –
in a Depression-era prairie town, told through gospel music woven throughout
the script.  Performers must be strong singers. Skill with a musical
instrument is an asset.

Sam Lundquist (1st tenor).  Mid 30s - 40s.  Sam has a knack for mischief and
runs the pool hall in town.

Pastor Ernest Douglas (2nd tenor).  Late 20s-early 30s.  The well-meaning
local minister.

George Hoveland (baritone). mid 30s-mid 40s A farmer and former quartet
singer. Embittered by disappointments,   George has lost his faith and his
music in a community where both are paramount.

Reverend Elroy Phillips (bass).  Mid 30s-mid 40s.  A charismatic travelling
evangelist, trying to repair past wrongs while reconnecting with friends
from his past.

Dolly Hoveland (pianist). Mid 30s-mid 40s.  A religious woman troubled by
her husband’s lack of faith. Must be a proficient piano player.

Priority will be given to Saskatchewan performers.

A reading copy of the script is available from Station Arts Centre.  Actors
will be given brief sides (in advance), and asked to sing a piece of
gospel/bluegrass music.

cast in this production will be engaged under an Equity form of contract.
