(From Joplin Little Theatre)Auditions for Proof by David Auburn will be held Monday and Tuesday, Nov. 21 and 22, 7 p.m., at Joplin Little Theatre, 3009 West First Street.
The production will be directed by Lisa Olliges Green, who is looking for a cast of four, consisting of two females – Catherine who is turning 25 and her older sister; two males – the father who is 50’s to 70’s and Hal, who is a graduate student in his 20’s-30’s.
Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script of the play. Proof is a play of family dynamics, self-awareness and a search for truth.
In Proof, Catherine approaches her 25th birthday questioning whether she has inherited her father’s mathematical genius or his insanity – or both. This, as one of his former students becomes an unlikely suitor for Catherine while he’s searching her father’s notebooks for a groundbreaking proof.
Catherine’s older sister returns home from New York City with her own plans for Catherine’s future. Performance dates are set for Wednesday, Jan. 11, through Saturday, Jan. 14, 2023, 7:30 p.m. nightly and Sunday, Jan. 15, 2023, 2:30 p.m.
Ticket prices are $18 for adults and $15 for senior citizens/students. For more information call the Joplin Little Theatre office at 417-623-3638 during office hours, Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
