Proof
by David Auburn
Weekends 4/12/19 thru 5/5/19
Catherine had cared for her father through a lengthy mental illness. Upon Robert's (her father) death, his ex-graduate student Hal discovers a paradigmshifting proof about prime numbers in Robert's office. The title refers both to that proof and to the play's central question: Can Catherine prove the proof's authorship? Along with demonstrating the proof's authenticity, the daughter also finds herself in a relationship with 28-year-old Hal. Throughout, the play explores Catherine's fear of following in her father's footsteps, both mathematically and mentally and her desperate attempts to stay in control.
