Playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play 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 new play, she resurrects her teenage self to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives. Directed by Lynn Goodwin. Starring Kate Udall (SFP's Sweat; Netflix's Daredevil). With Jonah Scott Mendelsohn (APAC’s Caroline, or Change) as the Legionnaire; with Ariana Roybal and Shaunti alternating as the debater.

June is Indigenous PRIDE in The Park! Celebrate Indigeneity with lesbian Puerto Rican singer songwriter extraordinaire, Lourdes Pérez. Her mesmerizing and beautiful voice is hauntingly prolific with her blend of lyrics and guitar style, that makes us want more. Taking the main stage, Mimi Gonzalez, is a life affirming force with her favorite triggers: bi-sexuality, identity politics and real liberation. Mimi’s mantra -“laughter is the best medicine,” is quick witted with a Pisces, lesbian and feminist flare. Closing the evening is local diverse band, Una Mas y La Cha Cha with their Chicano funk and eclectic spin on things. IndigenousWays Festival is more than just an event; it's a free festival for all who wish to have fun, learn about other cultures and languages, and be part of an inclusive, multicultural, and generational celebration.

Rain or shine, so long as there's no heavy lightning, the show will go on. And don't forget, we've got sign language interpreters on-site, making every beat, note, and word accessible to everyone.
