SC Theatre Presents:

Subtitle:

Proof, by David Auburn; Directed by Martin Shell, Professor of Theatre Arts
|
|
Description:
|
What is more mysterious than mathematics? How about the unknowability of love? Catherine has just turned 25
her brilliant but unstable father she spent years caring for has died
her estranged sister has arrived to take charge
and Hal
a former student of her father’s who wants to explore his notebooks for hidden mathematical proofs
is paying her very affectionate attention. But has Catherine inherited her father's brilliance - or his mental imbalance? Suspenseful
funny
and surprising
Proof captivates us with the tests of knowing trust
and the challenge to sort out the links between genius and madness.
“… a play about scientists whose science matters less than their humanity … All four characters– whether loving
hating
encouraging or impeding one another – are intensely alive
complex
funny
human.” John Simon
