Tabernacle
Character Breakdowns
Carlton Chapell. 30-40. Energetic and charismatic evangelist and ex-con. More interested in the theatre and the pomp and power he commands than the message he purports to tell.
Pearl Sweeney. 25-35. Carlton’s Musical Evangelist. Pretty, sexy, completed devoted to Chapell. Has a strong moral sense.
Brother Carruthers. 22-35. Carlton’s Youth Director. Handsome, but a snake inside. Manipulative, duplicitous, amoral.
John David Sommers. 50-55. An Elder, and longtime HROACM president. His family built the Tabernacle, and he considers himself its steward. Maybe a little too strongly.
Germaine Sommers. 45-50. His wife, and former Youth Director, but relegated to assistant in the wake of Chapell’s invasion. When we first meet her, she is a bit nervous, but she quickly reverts to her natural posture: defensive of her family and her place.
Buddy Townsend. 30-45. Used car dealer and elder of the HROACM. A shallow buffoon, but not a bad fellow. He has had a feud going with John David for ten years now.
Silas Parnell. 60-75. Aged evangelist of the “old school”, but no longer sure of himself and his preaching. Somewhat waiting to retire, but can’t seem to give it up just yet.
Milburne Thorndike. 14-16. Nephew to Germaine. A bit on the shy side, but possessing a streak of satire.
Althea Hollister. 14-16. Lost and Found Youth Camper who is mute. Sweetness incarnate, she carries scars from a painful life.
Katrina Knutsen. 20-25. Missionary to Birmingham. She has a sharp Minnesotan accent. Well-meaning, but definitely out of her element in Cedarville.
Ernie Lincoln. 40-60. HROACM Elder and treasurer. Eccentric and somewhat scatter-brained.
Hammah Henry. 16-18. Older teenage girl, Lost and Found Youth Camper, a tough kid who is the Leader of the Pack. She has, however, the proverbial heart of gold.
Molly Beasley. 16-18. Older teenage girl Lost and Found Youth Camper. The flirtatious one, looking for the boys.
Leroy Jones. 16-18. Lost and Found Youth Camper, Hammah's lieutenant. Obedient to Hammah, but has attitude as well.
Matthew Tanner. 30-60: HROACM Elder.
Joe Hargrave. 30-60: HROACM Elder.
Sooze Castle. 14-18. Lost and Found Youth Camper (girl).
