‘Proof’ opens at Steel River Playhouse April 27-May 13

- From Beth McDonnell

“Proof,” a thought-provoking hit play consists of an all-star cast, including Carly Crowley as Catherine, William Braak as Robert, Emily-Grace Murray as Claire, Steven Harding as Hal and direction by SRP Artistic Director Leena Devlin. This highly anticipate­d Broadway hit is the winner of both the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play.

“Proof” follows Catherine, daughter of a brilliant but mentally disturbed mathematic­ian, as she tries to come to grips with how much of her father’s madness or genius she will inherit after his recent death. The return of her controllin­g sister, who wishes to settle their father’s affairs, and the flirtation­s of Hal, a former graduate student of her late father’s, complicate matters. After Hal discovers a groundbrea­king mathematic­al proof among the late mathematic­ian’s papers, the struggle is on to find out who really wrote it.
