Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Suzan-Lori Parks (Topdog/Underdog) delivers a “hilarious and harrowing nesting doll of a play” (The New York Times) in Sally & Tom, a bold, whip-smart theatrical rollercoaster. A scrappy theatre group is staging a play about Sally Hemings and Thomas Jefferson, with the playwright playing Sally and her partner directing and playing Tom. What could possibly go wrong? As art and life collide, rehearsals spiral into chaos, unearthing powerful truths about race, power, and art. By turns funny, gut-wrenching, and unflinchingly honest, Sally & Tom is a bold and entertaining explosion of the stories we tell about America’s not-so-distant past that will stay with you long after the final bow.

As a teenager, Heidi Schreck traveled across America, earning her college tuition by winning constitutional debate competitions. Now, as an Obie Award-winning playwright, she takes a closer look at the Constitution and its effects on four generation of women in her family. Both poignant and hilarious, What the Constitution Means to Me is a profoundly personal look at our nation’s most debated document and how it could evolve to fit our modern times. One of the most popular and beloved plays in America, this “electrifyingly topical and eye-opening” (The New York Times) Pulitzer Prize finalist has never been more relevant, urgent, or needed.
