What the Constitution Means to Me

A love letter to our constitution

Fifteen-year-old Heidi earned her college tuition by winning Constitutional debate competitions held across the United States. In this hilarious, hopeful, and achingly human play, author Heidi Schreck resurrects her teenage self to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives. This powerful play is a love letter to our constitution, giving it new life and imagining how it will shape the next generation of Americans. 

A Tony-Award nominee and Pulitzer Prize finalist, What the Constitution Means to Me was called “the best and most important new play of the year” by the New York Times and “endearingly funny and deeply affecting” by the Washington Post. It’s a must-see show for anyone who is interested in politics, history, or simply wants to be challenged and engaged by thought-provoking and timely storytelling.
