Review: WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME at Round House Theatre
by David Friscic - Jan 23, 2025
The fine playwright Heidi Schreck has written an impassioned play about the many undercurrents and issues that percolate throughout the United States Constitution in the stimulating and invigorating production What the Constitution Means to Me. The constant tension between this cherished document as a more legalistic document to be taken literally (originalist interpretation) and the more fluid interpretation of the Constitution as a living, breathing document –are felt throughout this absorbing and ever-timely play which is presented by the Round House Theatre.
