Adapted from David Auburn’s Pulitzer- and Tony-winning play, Proof follows Catherine, the daughter of a brilliant but mentally ill mathematician. While caring for her father, she secretly completes a groundbreaking mathematical proof—only to have its authorship questioned by her sister and her lover Hal, due to gender bias.
Through the tensions of family, love, and academic doubt, the play explores the fine line between genius and madness, the struggle of women in intellectual spaces, and the painful search for self-worth. At its core, it asks: how do we prove anything—especially trust?
