What do we inherit – genius or madness?

Smart, funny and deeply human, TAODS is proud to present David Auburn’s Pulitzer and Tony Award winning Proof. Both moving and suspenseful Proof is a riveting, fast paced drama that crackles with wit and heart. Blending sharp humour with emotional depth it explores the fine line between brilliance and instability, and the bonds that hold us together even when reason falters.

Catherine, the daughter of a legendary but unstable mathematician finds herself at a cross-roads after his death. After years of caring for her father, Catherine must deal with the arrival of her estranged sister Claire and the attentions of Hal, a former student of her father’s hoping to find value amongst the many notebooks he left behind. The discovery of a mysterious notebook sparks a battle over trust and love whilst Catherine struggles to solve the most perplexing problem; how much of her father’s madness – or genius – will she inherit?
