Harper College Theater Ensemble presents "Proof" by David Auburn, Directed by Laura Pulio Colbert

Following the death of her brilliant but unstable mathematician father, Catherine, on the eve of her 25th birthday faces her own volatile emotions. With the arrival of her estranged sister Claire, and the attentions of Hal, a former student of her father’s, Catherine is forced to face the most difficult problem of all: How much of her father’s madness – or genius – will she inherit? 

Winner of the 2001 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best Play.
