Fifteen-year-old Heidi earned her college tuition by winning constitutional debate competitions across the country. In this electrifying and deeply personal play, she revisits that teenage self to explore how the U.S. Constitution has shaped her life — and how it continues to shape all of ours. Blending humor, history, and heartfelt storytelling, this Tony Award–nominated work invites audiences into a lively, thought-provoking conversation about rights, citizenship, and what the Constitution means today.

HAVING OUR SAY: The Delany Sisters' First 100 Years

Two sisters.  One century.  An American story.

By Emily Mann. Adapted from the book by Sarah L. Delany and A. Elizabeth Delany with Amy Hill Hearth

You are invited into the home of Sadie and Bessie Delany. When we meet the sisters, they are 102 and 103 years old, preparing tea and recalling the extraordinary lives they have lived together. With warmth, wit, and astonishing clarity, the Delany sisters guide us through the events that shaped modern America—from the rigid segregation of the Jim Crow South to two World Wars, the Civil Rights Movement, and the cultural transformations that followed.

​As they welcome us and go about their daily routine, their stories unfold into something larger: a deeply personal reflection on the American story—its triumphs, its failures, and the resilience required to endure both.

​Tickets: $40 General Admission, $35 Seniors, $25 Students & Military
