This is an “endearingly funny and deeply affecting” Pulitzer Finalist.
About the Play
During its 2019 run on Broadway, “What The Constitution Means to Me” received a tidal wave of critical praise, two Tony Award nominations, and ultimately became a Pulitzer finalist. The New York Times hailed Schreck’s boundary-breaking show as “. . . not just the best play to open on Broadway so far this season but also the most important.”
In this smart and timely comedy, Schreck resurrects her 15-year-old self who traveled the country competing in American Legion speech competitions to save money for college. Unearthing her perspective on the Constitution then and now, she delves into four generations of women in her family and how the founding document shaped their lives. BETC is honored to premiere this NY Times ‘Critics’ Choice’ comedy in Denver and Boulder.
