Explanation:
On the surface, David Auburn's Proof is a very simple play. Catherine is a mess. Cathy's dad, Robert, was a crazy mathematician, but now he's dead. Cathy's older sister, Claire, is a meddling career woman. And Hal, Robert's former graduate student, is rifling through the office upstairs in search of some great mathematical discovery. Add in some psychological drama, family drama, comedy, and romance, and this well-made play becames an exceptionally elegant and intriguing piece of theatrical fare.
