What the Constitution Means to Me

International City Theatre presents What the Constitution Means to Me, winner of the New York Critics' Circle Award for Best American Play, written by Heidi Schreck and directed by caryn desai. Join ICT for a post-show talkback with the cast on May 12.

Playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play breathes new life into our Constitution and imagines how it will shape the next generation of Americans. Fifteen-year-old Heidi earned her college tuition by winning Constitutional debate competitions across the United States. In this hilarious, hopeful, and achingly human play, she resurrects her teenage self in order to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives.
