"Proof"
 
6th Street Playhouse presents "Proof," by David Auburn
 
         Winner of the 2001 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best Play, "Proof" combines mystery and suspense with good old-fashioned storytelling when a troubled young woman discovers a revolutionary mathematical breakthrough.
 
        On a weekend following the death of her father (a famous mathematician), romance and the discovery of a mysterious notebook draws Catherine into the most difficult problem of all - how much of her father's madness 'or genius' will she inherit?
 
       "Proof" explores the power of love, trust and talent with thoughtfulness and humor as Catherine must deal with her own volatile emotions; the arrival of her estranged sister; and the attentions of Hal, a former student of her father's who hopes to find valuable work in the 103 notebooks that her father left behind.
