PLAY SYNOPSIS
The story focuses on Catherine, a troubled young woman who has spent years
caring for her brilliant but unstable father, a famous mathematician. Now,
following his death, she must deal with her own volatile emotions; the arrival
of her estranged sister, Claire; and the attentions of Hal a former student of
her father’s, who hopes to find valuable work in the 103 notebooks that her
father left behind. Over the long weekend that follows, a burgeoning romance and
the discovery of a mysterious notebook draw Catherine into the most difficult
problem of all: How much of her father’s madness – or genius will she inherit?
