WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME
by Heidi Schreck.

JUNE 5, 6, 7, & 12, 13, 2026
@ The Bluff Strokes Art Center 1201 Locust Street,
Dubuque, Iowa  

Endearingly funny and deeply affecting autobiographical drama.

This play is pretty much a one-woman tour de force featuring Stephanie Bussan.  Based on teenage Heidi Schreck’s personal experience participating in high school American Legion US Constitution contest debates and then revisiting with the audience her questions and thoughts in her adult age. 

“Brilliantly digressive, insistently personal. The play is a both a winsome love letter to and worried

critique of one of the nation’s founding documents.” Laura Collins, New York Times
