**ASL interpretation at the performance on May 20. **

Off Square Theatre presents playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play,
which 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.

What the Constitution Means to Me, a finalist for the 2019 Pulitzer Prize, premiered
off-Broadway at the New York Theatre Workshop on September 12, 2018. The play
opened on Broadway at the Helen Hayes Theatre on March 31, 2019. Initially
announced for a 12-week engagement, the Broadway production extended twice,
shattering box office records, for a total run of 24 weeks.

“Uproariously funny, wrenchingly moving, critically challenging and politically
inspiring.” – David Cole, The New York Review of Books

“Endearingly funny and deeply affecting … It would be hard to identify a work for the
theater with its finger more on the pulse of America right now.” – Peter Marks, The
Washington Post
