In the academic world of mathematics 'proofs' are a kind of intellectual currency. If published, they can launch a career. But, they're rare and precious items, essentially the product of sweat and genius; the very essence of math. David Auburn's play, PROOF, examines this form of the word, but also visits upon many of the other meanings present as well. Filled with moments of drama, mystery and humor, Proof is a compelling tale that never bores, and Insight Theatre Company closes their season with a generally solid production of this clever and engaging work.

From October 14-23, the Independent Drama Society presents the IDS NEOFUTURIST PROJECT , two weekends of utterly raw and totally realistic theatre that suspend the suspension of disbelief.
