Great Debate: Dezart Performs’ ‘What the Constitution Means to Me’ Wonderfully Tackles Serious Subjects With Humor and Charm!

Gilmore Rizzo of CV Independent writes, “These debates over the Constitution are presented beautifully in the funny, thought-provoking production by Dezart Performs, What the Constitution Means to Me, by Heidi Schreck.

“Robyn Cohen’s lead performance is a 120-minute tour de force. She portrays Heidi Schreck with high energy and charm, keeping the audience riveted as she toggles back and forth between the present day and the past.”

“[Craig] Wroe’s demeanor and appearance as the World War II veteran is right out of central casting; he makes the staunch character likable, providing many well-deserved laughs. Wroe later portrays Mike, Heidi’s reflective and genuine assistant.

“[Tia] Laulusa’s delivery is fast, natural and intelligent, and her large smile brightens the stage. As the young debater, Laulusa offers hope for the future in these troubling political times.

“Director Craig Wells keep things moving at a fast pace. The material delivered is nonstop and could have been overwhelming, but the lighter and playful staging gives the audience much-needed breaks.

“No matter which side of the aisle you are on, make sure you get a seat at Dezart Performs to enjoy another powerful production from this highly respected theater company.”
