Broadway And Politics

Heidi Schreck’s hilarious and winning play WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME is not exactly new (it ran off-Broadway in 2018, on Broadway in 2019, and ran in Los Angeles earlier this year) but I’d be remiss if I didn’t bring it up anyway. A filmed version of the play is now streaming on Amazon, and it’ is the perfect antidote to the anxiety I’m feeling leading up to Election Day. Schreck’s play is not an overly earnest  didactic lesson in politics; it’s a wildly funny, heartfelt story of a young girl learning to engage with politics and the world around her as she comes of age.
