Filled with humor and history, The award-winning 2019 Tony Award nominee and winner of the Obie Award, Off-Broadway Alliance Award, and New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award, What The Constitution Means To Me is Playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play that breathes new life into our Constitution and imagines how it will shape the next generation of Americans. As a 15-year-old, Heidi Schreck won debate competitions defending the Constitution across the country. As an adult, she resurrects her teenage self to investigate its profound effect on four generations of women in her family. This exhilarating show culminates in a live debate with an actual teen, allowing audiences to weigh in on the Constitution's impact on our daily lives. A soul-stirring play of civic engagement, What The Constitution Means To Me is 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.What the Constitution Means to Me will be one of the most produced plays nationwide in September, but The Voices Amplified production will host the premiere in this area.
