What people said about the show PROOF, which opened Thursday night at the
Geauga Theater, directed by Fred Sternfeld:

“Amazing! I hadn’t seen the show before and never knew it was this good; now
I know why everyone was talking about it.  We want to come back and see it
again.”

“This is absolutely the best show I have ever seen….anywhere.”

“We just moved here from Chicago where good theater was a part of our lives.
We were afraid that we wouldn’t be able to find professionally done theater
close to our home; this production of PROOF makes us want to celebrate…we
know we are home again where excellent shows are right around the corner.
We’ll be back.”

“Congratulations to Geauga Theater, THIS is what we have been waiting for;
an adult show, beautifully acted, that we could sink our teeth into.”

“I’ve seen PROOF before, and love it.  This is the best production by far.”

“This show was not what I thought it would be at all, I didn’t know that I
would be laughing so much.  I have to admit that this is the best show that
I have seen in a long time.”

“How refreshing!  Truly professional theater in our own back yard that
completely drew us in to the lives of the characters. These actors out did
themselves.”

“Fantastic! The set, the acting, the story…this is why we go to live
theater! Experiencing this show was an honor!”

“Thank you for bringing this director and cast to Geauga County, we wouldn’t
trade tonight for anything.”

“Please tell the actors thank you; no one could have done a better job.  No
one, absolutely no one, should miss this show”
