We are excited to announce a special, limited-engagement run of Heidi Schreck's "What the Constitution Means to Me," coming to Morristown in early 2026. The play will run for five performances only, on January 31, February 1, 6, 7, and 8, 2026.
Pioneer Production's Artistic Director, Dan Vissers, will direct Schreck’s boundary-breaking play that breathes new life into our Constitution and imagines how it will shape the next generation of Americans. Fifteen-year-old Heidi earned her college tuition by winning Constitutional debate competitions across the United States.
In this hilarious, hopeful, and achingly human play, she resurrects her teenage self to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives.
It’s theater in the old sense, the Greek sense, a place where civic society can come together and do its thinking and fixing.

As a bonus, patrons will be greeted with a special live preshow cabaret performance by Jade Delos Santos, who starred on the Pioneer stage earlier this year as Joanne in Jonathan Larson's RENT. Delos Santos will open the evening with a short USO-style cabaret set that features a selection of classics from the 20th century.
