Exclusive Interview: Dani Cochrane & Cheryl Turski of Meadow Brook Theatre’s ‘What The Constitution Means to Me’
So many plays ask big questions about love, identity, or ambition. However, What the Constitution Means to Me asks something even bigger: What does a document written in 1787 actually mean for people living right now? Perhaps this is a question we should ask ourselves more often, but we think about it far too little. Heidi Schreck’s work answers this question, though it may be far more personal—and complicated—than anyone expects. We spoke with two cast members from Meadow Brook Theatre’s production of What the Constitution Means to Me, Dani Cochrane and Cheryl Turski, about the play’s power and impact.
In this exclusive BSB Insider interview, Cochrane and Turski discuss what drew them to this project and why What the Constitution Means to Me is so important to tell in this current landscape. These two actresses discuss how sharing the role in this Meadow Brook Theatre production has helped them both shape their performances, and how having someone else to bounce ideas off during character development is a rare gift. Cochrane and Turski discuss what it’s like to step into another person’s story and the weight of carrying Schreck’s story in this show.
