Award Winning Play – What the Constitution Means to Me
August 15, 2024 - August 18, 2024
For 4 nights, starting August 15, 2024
Playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play, What the Constitution Means to Me, is a playful and incisive analysis of gender and racial biases inherent to the U.S. Constitution that examines how this living document could evolve to fit modern America. The piece is based on the experiences of fifteen-year-old Heidi Schreck, who put herself through college by giving speeches about the U.S. Constitution. Now, she resurrects her teenage self to trace the document’s profound impact on women’s bodies—starting with her great-great-grandmother, a mail-order bride who died under mysterious circumstances.
Each show is followed by a panel of women community leaders for Q&A.
