What the Constitution Means to Me

Regional Premiere

October 17- November 3, 2024

Stage West

Written by Heidi Schreck
Directed by Dana Schultes
Scenic Design by L. Mazur

Earnest and polite high schooler Heidi put herself through college by winning debates about the Constitution. Now an adult, she revisits her teenage self to trace the generational impact America’s founding document has had on her life. Civic duty is on full display as this witty and interactive new play builds to a live debate between Heidi and an actual teen, allowing “we the people” to decide how to move forward.

Something Wicked (a re-imagined Macbeth) is a first step in refreshing the default rehearsal structure. Utilizing a process-oriented approach means we get to slow down and explore. We are work-shopping this world, making sure we understand the rules, the hierarchy, and the beats before all the bells and whistles come in. It's a working rehearsal: questions are still asked, notes are still given and discussions are still had. I want to give this company time to marinate in the world we create together.

Then, after our offering in April, we’ll take a break and come back in October of 2024 with a full production!

We hope you get join us as well celebrate our first steps to a new theatre-making process.

This program is supported, in part, by the City of Dallas Office of Arts and Culture and Comerica Charitable Giving.
