Proof description
We are excited to announce that tickets are now on sale for David Auburn’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play “Proof”. Polly Findlay will direct, fresh from her plaudits for Antigone (National Theatre) and A Taste Of Honey (Sheffield Theatres).
Catherine has cared for her father Robert, a renowned mathematician, through his mental illness for the past five years. His ex-student, Hal, discovers a ground-breaking proof in Robert’s office but the question is posed: who is the real author of this brilliant work? Catherine struggles to solve this, and the most perplexing problem of all: how much of her father’s madness – or genius – has she inherited?
