Tent Show Radio, which debut in 1994, is a weekly variety series showcasing live performances from Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua.

Each week features a different live performance from Big Top Chautauqua's summer season of concerts and musical productions.

"I've long enjoyed attending shows at the Big Top Chautauqua. In fact, in Truck I wrote several pages about a Greg Brown show my wife and I saw at the Big Top," said Perry. "Between the live music of the Blue Canvas Orchestra and guests ranging from Joan Baez to Willie Nelson, I'll share my thoughts on things like cheap cereal, Cheesehead Spanglish, and the smell of tromped grass. I'll also provide strikingly original comments along the lines of: 'Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome [insert music star name here].'" - more on this story
