But the drama department is bringing the unlikely pair into har- mony in its new production “Proof,” written by David Auburn, which hits the stage of the Masquer Theatre beginning Oct. 25 at 7:30 p.m. “Drama folks are very math phobic as a stereotype,” said pro- duction director Jillian Campana. “The play is about mathematicians and their obsession.” Campana discovered “Proof” several years ago when her stu- dents began using scenes from the play for class assignments. “Students were bringing in scenes from ‘Proof’ four years ago,” she said. “We listen to them when they bring in these scenes. With this play, it was great to say, ‘It’s a great play, let’s do it.’” The play revolves around the relationship between two estranged sisters, and Campana said she dealt with an abnormally small group of actors. “Usually we don’t do shows with such a small cast,” she said. “There are only four roles, but they’re meaty roles. It’s a treat for a faculty member to direct such a small cast.” Initial planning for the produc- tion began last spring, when Campana began assembling set designers and crew. Since the start of rehearsals in the first week of October, “Proof” has proved to be a large commitment for those involved. “It’s a huge commitment, espe- cially for students,” Campana said. “I don’t think a lot of people realize how much work goes into a show like this. Students go to classes all day, then come back at 6:30 to rehearse.” Sarah Jo Wojciechowski-Prill, a third-year MFA acting student, plays the eldest sister Claire. The
