Emmy winner Ayo Edebiri and Golden Globe winner Don Cheadle make their long-awaited Broadway debuts in David Auburn’s Pulitzer and Tony Award–winning PROOF. Directed by Tony winner Thomas Kail (Hamilton), this landmark revival returns to Broadway for the first time: reawakening a haunting story of brilliance, inheritance and belief.

Catherine (Edebiri), the brilliant but restless daughter of renowned mathematics professor Robert (Cheadle), is thrust into turmoil when a notebook containing a revelatory proof is discovered after his death. As debate erupts over its true authorship, Catherine must confront the power of legacy, and the cost of proving herself.
