Based on the award winning film starring Gwyneth Paltrow!
On the eve of her twenty-fifth birthday, Catherine, a quick-witted and stubborn young woman, has spent years caring for Robert, her unstable but brilliant father known as a mathematical genius at the University of Chicago. Now, following his death, she must deal with her own volatile emotions, the arrival of her estranged sister, and the attention of Hal, a former student of her fathers who discovers a paradigm-shifting proof about prime numbers in the 103 notebooks that her father left behind. Over the long weekend that follows, a burgeoning romance and the discovery of a mysterious notebook draw Catherine into the most difficult problems of all: Can Catherine prove the proof's authorship? And how much of her father's madness-or genius-will she inherit? Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play and Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Proof "combines elements of mystery and surprise with old-fashioned storytelling to provide a compelling evening of theatre."
