The 15 actors in the cast will represent Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, New Age and Indigenous communities. In fact, three of the five main roles are designated for Indigenous actors.
With songs humorous and heart-rending, MEET ME THERE urges us to establish peaceful co-existence, celebrate and enjoy our religious and cultural diversity, and embrace compassion, especially during this time of great divisiveness and polarization.
