Pulitzer Prize-Winning
"Proof"
by David Auburn

Don & Ann Brown Theatre

West Palm Beach's only resident professional theatre, Palm Beach Dramaworks, concludes its spring season with David Auburn's Pulitzer Prize-winning play "Proof" on Friday, May 25th (8PM) at the Don & Ann Brown Theatre(201 Clematis Street). Special priced preview performances are slated for May 23rd & 24th with regularly scheduled curtain times through June 17th.

Set in Chicago, Proof explores the struggles of the daughter of a brilliant, but mentally disturbed mathematician. Preparing for his funeral, Catherine tries to come to grips with her possible inheritance - his insanity or his genius. Proof is a story of human relationships and how the uncertainty of love can be just as challenging as the uncertainty of a mathematical proof.
