Winner of the 2001 Pulitzer Prize and four Tony Awards including Best Play, Proof displays a deep intricate wisdom of family dynamics in the chaos of mental instability. The Actors Workshop Theatre’s staging probes the compelling relationship between a caregiving daughter and her unstable-genius father. After his passing, an emancipated Catherine finds herself in the eye of the storm between a monolithic past, ie, the specter of her father’s brilliance-cum-mental collapse, and a tumultuous present, a battle of wills between ardent suitor and controlling sister.
There are two Preview performances scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday, November 1 and 2 at 8:00 PM.
