A Tony and Pulitzer prize-winning play that explores the unstable gifts that come with genius when it is blended with mental illness. The play revolves around Catherine who has spent years caring for her father, a retired professor of mathematics struggling with his own mental health. The play explores the challenges of inheritance, family bonds, and self-reliance. David Auburn has crafted a beautiful family drama that is – in equal parts – funny, relatable, and breathtaking.
