Proof (Dramatization) Audiobook

" Literary Cavalcade Excerpt "

" I read this while I was taking an acting class, and really wanted to play the main character. Sadly I was instead assigned to "Sally Talley" from the play "Talley's Folly." Boo. If you are a female acting student looking for interesting characters in contemporary plays, check this out. "

" I didn't read this book, but saw a production of the story on stage. "

" I love how multi-dimensional the characters are, and I also love how the characters come alive in the text. Still, it's not the most amazing contemporary play I have read thus far. "

" Read this for a theater class. I felt like this was a smooth read, a nice and easy intro to 20th/21st century plays "

" This was read to me from start to finish during a car ride. I liked that better than the movie. "

" David Auborn has such juicy dialogue! I love it! "

" Almosyt as wonderful a read as a stage play. David Auburn has never written so well again - alas. "

" I loved the movie, and now the play is really remarkable. The simplicity for such a complex topic comes across really well. I highly recommend this. "

" A very good play! Quick read, gripping storyline. But as all books about mathematitians, they never say what THE proof was about.... "

" I liked this one quite a lot! It was interesting, good use of imaginary characters and making them believable. Unique. Very very unique. "

" Watch the language, but a great play. "

" It's a play, not a book. Which means don't expect the characters to be fully fleshed out. That's typically the actors job. Ya know, to "inhabit the character". The skeleton that Auburn crafts here felt fairly universal. I certainly didn't feel left out of the equation. "

" Amazing. The characters and writing are fantastic! I'm completely hooked. "

" Easily my favorite play :) "

" Saw this about 4-5 years before the screen adaptation, which I thought was well done, though obviously not the play. An interesting look at relationships and genius "

" Liked it, especially complemented by the movie with Gwyneth Paltrow! "

" Math! Yay! "

" I listened to the LA Theater Works version of this starring Jeremy Sisto and Anne Heche. It was fantastic. "

" My first introduction into the world of directing. Adore the characters, particularly the father Robert, and the structure of switching back before and after Robert's death. Simple dialogue with humming undertones. Not necessarily a life-changer, but a good, well-written story. "

" I had to read this in my Modern Theater class. We've read 2 plays this year so far, and I've liked them both. Even though the story had to do with mathematics, which I hate, it was an overall awesome play. "

" I always wanted to be good at math. I'm not. As a result, I like plays about math. And relationships. And mental illness. Good times. "

" Love it! Nerdy and heartwarming! "

" It's a question of believing "

" A contemporary play about math. Surprisingly, my 12th classroom loves this play! There is some swearing, some mystery, some surprises. "

" Although this book is kinda dramatic but it's nice to read. "

" I really enjoyed this. A short play that was very amusing yet with a tinge of sadness. "

" 2001 Pulitzer: 2001 Tony for Best Play "

" I really enjoyed this play. I can't wait to see the movie. "

" I'm not a big play reader (except, for a time, Shakespeare), but I enjoyed this play. Read it about five years ago in a women's studies class, and then watched the movie, after which, of course, I couldn't imagine the protagonist as anyone other than Mary Louise Parker as the lead. "

" Broadway 2000? OCU 2003? Norman 2004? "

" I'm working on a scene from this for acting class, and Catherine is difficult to play, because getting in the head of someone brilliant but repressed is a unique place. I think it's definitely worth reading. "

" I had to read this in my Modern Theater class. We've read 2 plays this year so far, and I've liked them both. Even though the story had to do with mathematics, which I hate, it was an overall awesome play. "

" Fantastic thoughtful drama about a fading mathematician and his loving daughters. "
