About the show
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime is a play based on a wildly successful novel by Mark Haddon. The play follow the story of Christopher Boone, a 15 year old boy who is on the autistic spectrum.
After finding his neighbor's dog killed with a garden fork Christopher begins an investigation to find out who killed in. In the process he makes discoveries about himself and his family that eventually prompt him to run away from his father's home and take the Swindon train to find his mother's apartment in London.
The design for the show is focused on how Christoper sees the world and how his unique perspective allows the audience to see his mind as the universe.
