Proof
About This Event
Proof at the Booth Theatre reunites a quartet of actors whose careers bridge screen and stage: Ayo Edebiri, Don Cheadle, Jin Ha and Kara Young. Each brings stage-honed discipline—Edebiri's shift from screen comedy into directing, Cheadle's measured dramatic work, Ha's ensemble training and Young's consecutive Tony wins (2024, 2025)—and a focus on precision and attentive listening over display.
