WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME
September 13 – October 1
By Heidi Schreck | Directed by Melissa Crespo | Scenic Design by Ann Beyersdorfer | Costume Design by Carmen M. Martinez | Lighting Design by Kathy A. Perkins | Sound Design by Jacqueline R. Herter
Schreck’s boundary-breaking show traces the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives. Hilarious, hopeful, and honest, this Tony and Pulitzer nominated play exposes baked-in biases and omissions, while also breathing in new life, and imagining how American lives will be impacted for generations to come.
“Every American should see this play!”
