A deeply personal and timely exploration of the U.S. Constitution's impact on women's lives across generations.
"What the Constitution Means to Me" is an acclaimed play by Heidi Schreck that delves into the profound effects of the U.S. Constitution on four generations of women in her family. Drawing from her teenage experiences participating in constitutional debate competitions, Schreck offers a compelling narrative that intertwines personal history with a critical examination of America's foundational document. This production, featuring new material updated for 2025, provides an "electrifyingly topical and eye-opening" (The New York Times) perspective on how the Constitution continues to influence modern society. The play runs from January 15 to February 16, 2025, at Round House Theatre, with performances by Kimberly Gilbert and Michael Glenn under the direction of Morgan Gould.
