As part of The Dolphin Theatre's season of the acclaimed Proof by David Auburn, we will be holding a charity performance on Wednesday 25 September with proceeds going to benefit our friends at Yellow Brick Road, a national organisation that provides support for whānau who have a loved one experiencing mental health challenges.
SYNOPSIS:
Catherine spent years caring for her genius father, forced to witness the slow deterioration of his remarkable mind. After his death, she is left to pick up the pieces, unsure whether she has inherited his mathematical prowess or his mental illness. Catherine finds herself caught between a new-found connection with Hal, her father’s former student, and the reappearance of Claire, her older sister. Life is further complicated by the discovery of a groundbreaking mathematical proof. But who really wrote it? A passionate, intelligent story about fathers and daughters, the nature of genius, and the power of love. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
