This weekend, UHP Sophomore Amelia Speight makes her directorial debut with Generic Theatre Company’s Production of Proof by David Auburn!! Covering the often-walked line of genius and insanity, this play is sure to be thought-provoking to any honors student.
The play focuses on a young woman named Catherine, who has spent years caring for her brilliant but unstable father, Robert. When he dies she has more than grief to deal with: there’s her estranged sister, Claire, and Hal, a former student of her father’s who hopes to find valuable work in the 103 notebooks that Robert left behind. And a further problem: how much of her father’s madness or genius will Catherine inherit?
The show is this weekend in the Lisner Downstage. Come out and support GW’s student theatre community and a fellow honors student! Show times are: Thursday, March 19 at 8 PM, Friday, March 20 at 7 PM & 10 PM, and Saturday, March 21 at 7 PM & 10 PM. Tickets are $5, cash or credit and are available for presale Tuesday, March 17th and Wednesday, March 18th from 4-6 in the Marvin Center, across from the first floor elevators.
Can’t wait to see you there!
