production of 2000. Directed by Adam Gerdts (The House of Yes, The
MacGuffin, and I'm Gonna Kill the President), and featuring Amy Heidt*
(The Shape of Things, The House of Yes), Kate Middleton* (Marty,
Chicago, The Fringe), Stuart Marshall* (Trolls, The Fantasticks), and Guy
Olivieri* (Nat'l Tour Rent), Proof "explores the unknowability of love
as much as it does the mysteries of mathematics," according to press notes.Ground Up
