    About This Event

    At the Booth Theatre, Proof features a lineup including Don Cheadle, Ayo Edebiri, Jin Ha and Kara Young. The cast brings screen and stage experience: Cheadle's measured stage presence, Edebiri's move from The Bear into directing and Broadway, Ha's ensemble-trained clarity, and Young, a two-time Tony winner. These qualities align with a text-driven production.
