The Phoenix Theatre Company will present the boundary-breaking "What the Constitution Means to Me.”
This play is an invitation to reflect on the ongoing relevance of the United States Constitution in everyday life, a press release explains. The show, part hilarity and heartbreak, is ultimately a lesson in empathy, history, and the possibility of change. The show will run from Wednesday, April 10 through Sunday, June 16 at The Phoenix Theatre Company's Hardes Theatre, 1825 N. Central Ave.
Written by Heidi Schreck, "What the Constitution Means to Me" explores how the Constitution has shaped the rights and liberties of American women across generations. Schreck draws from her own experiences as a teenager travelling the country to participate in Constitutional debates, reflecting on the document's influence on her, her family, and the broader implications for women's rights in America.
“In the play, Heidi refers to the Constitution as a ‘living document’ and something exceptional about this piece is that it is also ‘living’. It portrays real stories and engages the audience as another character – inspiring conversation and self-reflection,” Michelle Chin, Festival of New Works + Summer Camp Director, Resident Dramaturg, and director of this production, stated. “Its title may suggest something academic or political, but at its heart this play is about human experience.”
The cast for "What the Constitution Means to Me" at The Phoenix Theatre Company includes Kate Haas and Rob Watson. The understudy cast includes Amie Bjorklund and Johnny Kalita.
