In the 2019 Pulitzer Prize finalist, What the Constitution Means to Me, Heidi Schreck takes a fresh, funny, and deeply personal look at the U.S. Constitution and the ways it has shaped—and sometimes challenged—our lives. Inspired by her teenage years as a debate champion, she revisits her youthful optimism and examines how her understanding of this document has evolved over time. Blending humor, history, and heartfelt storytelling, the play offers a lively and thought-provoking exploration of rights, citizenship, and the ever-changing American dream. Smart, surprising, and full of humanity, What the Constitution Means to Me makes history feel personal in the most entertaining way.
CONTENT WARNING:
Heidi Schreck’s What the Constitution Means to Me, blends memoir and debate to examine systemic and personal trauma, including domestic violence, sexual assault, partner abuse, and reproductive rights, through the lens of U.S. constitutional law. Weaving personal stories with legal history, the play is emotionally resonant and politically powerful. There are some infrequent instances of profanity and mature political expressions.
This production is made possible through a partnership with Gateway Regional Arts Center. Presented through funding from the National Endowment for the Arts in honor of America’s 250th Anniversary Celebration.
WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.
