Proof is a family drama that explores the relationship between brilliance and madness. It centres around the character of Catherine, a young woman who has spent years caring for her father, a once-great mathematician now stricken with mental illness. The play opens on the eve of his funeral, as Catherine begins her struggles with issues of responsibility, trust, and the possible inheritance of her father’s brilliance- and madness. Her life is complicated by the arrival of her sceptical sister the attentions of her father’s former student, as well as unexpected visits from her deceased father. Within the context of higher mathematics, David Auburn touches on issues to which all people can relate, and delves into the mysteries of the heart through the presentation of a mystery of the mind.
