What the Constitution Means to Me is an entertaining, thought-provoking invitation for audiences to examine the U.S. Constitution through the lens of personal history and contemporary life.
Fifteen-year-old Heidi Schreck earned her University of Oregon tuition by winning Constitutional debate competitions across the United States.
In this Pulitzer Prize finalist and Tony Award nominated play, Heidi resurrects her teenage self to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the 250 year old document that shaped their lives.
How well does the United States Constitution support America today?
Does it need an update?
Should we abolish it and start over?
This humorous and hopeful show is an expression of pathos which explores these questions and imagines how the nation’s founding document will shape the next generation of Americans.
