About the event

Been begging for a Constitutional amendment cheat sheet? Fifteen-year-old Heidi once paid for college by winning Constitutional debate competitions. Now, as an adult, she revisits that teenage self to explore how this founding document has shaped four generations of women in her family and continues to shape all of us.

Hilarious, endearing, and surprising, this boundary-breaking play was a Pulitzer Prize finalist and a Tony Award nominee for Best Play.

As the United States marks its 250th anniversary in 2026, this timely and deeply personal story invites us to reflect on who the Constitution was written for, and how each generation reinterprets its meaning.

“Uproariously funny, wrenchingly moving, and inspiring.” – NY Review of Books
