Winning both a Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award in 2001, David Auburn's powerful drama Proof examines the fine line between genius and insanity. In the play, a groundbreaking mathematical proof is discovered in the attic of a recently-deceased math genius, leaving Catherine, his troubled adult daughter, to track down its origins and prove its authorship. Now, Catherine must come to terms with her father's untimely death and face her fears of inheriting his brilliance and madness -- all amidst complicated situations of a budding romance with her father's former student and the unplanned arrival of her estranged sister. Making its way to Chicago's Royal George Theater, Proof chronicles the discovery of self-identity through intellectual and emotional challenges and explores the power of love to help us reach our true potential.
