A Benefit Reading of
What The Constitution Means to Me
Written by Heidi Schreck
Directed by Bill Coons
Featuring Susan Haefner, Richard Waterhouse, and Kaitlynn Cherry
June 14
Join us for a fundraising event to support Shaker Bridge Theatre's 18th Season. 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 new 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.
Heidi Schreck critically-acclaimed play What the Constitution Means to Me played an extended, sold-out run on Broadway in 2019 and was nominated for two Tony Awards. A filmed version of the play premiered on Amazon Prime Video and was nominated for a Critics Choice Award, a PGA Award and DGA Award. What the Constitution Means to Me was named Best of the Year by the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, Time Magazine, The Hollywood Reporter, The New Yorker and more.
This reading is made possible by the Theatre Authority.
