It was announced on Wednesday that the former president and first lady are producing the revival of Proof through their production company, Higher Ground. The Tony-winning play follows Catherine, a young woman grieving the death of her father, Robert, a brilliant but mentally ill mathematics professor. Don Cheadle and Ayo Edebiri will be making their Broadway debuts as Robert and Catherine, respectively. The revival will be produced by Mike Bosner and directed and co-produced by Thomas Kail.
"To bring this landmark play back to Broadway with Ayo, Don, Tommy and Mike at the helm is an extraordinary privilege, and we couldn’t be more proud to be part of this production," the Obamas said in a statement Wednesday. “Proof is exactly the kind of story Higher Ground was built to champion, a play that asks profound questions about brilliance, doubt, and what we inherit from the people we love most."

"We’re thrilled to welcome Higher Ground as partners on Proof and to have their creative vision and passion behind this production," Bosner and Kail said in a statement. "Their impeccable taste in storytelling and community-building makes them ideal collaborators for this revival."
Proof will be playing for 16 weeks at the Booth Theater in New York City starting March 31 for previews, before its official opening night on April 16. Tickets are now on sale and range from $99 to $449.
