Tabard Theatre to Present Pulitzer Prize Winner PROOF This Autumn

Critically acclaimed Front Foot Theatre presents the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play, Proof.

Catherine has sacrificed her education and social life to care for her brilliant but unstable father (RSC veteran Tim Hardy) during the worst of his mental degeneration.

On the eve of her 25th birthday, Catherine must deal not only with the arrival of her estranged sister, Claire, but also with the attentions of Hal (Ian Charleson Award nominee Kim Hardy), a former student of her father's, who hopes to find lingering insight in the professor's work.

As Catherine confronts Hal's affections and Claire's plans for her life, she struggles to solve the most perplexing problem of all: How much of her father's madness or genius will she inherit?

David Auburn's compelling script ricochets between the mysteries of mathematics, the elusiveness of love and the fine line between genius and madness.

Director Sebastien Blanc's previous plays have received5 Off West End Award Nominations and one award for Best Supporting Actor.
