The Curious Incident of the Dog at Night-Time

Chris, fifteen years old, stands beside Mrs Shears’ dead dog. It has been speared with a garden fork, it is seven minutes after midnight, and Chris is under suspicion. She records each fact in the book she is writing to solve the mystery of who murdered Wellington. She has an extraordinary brain, but she is ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. She has never ventured alone beyond the end of her road, she detests being touched, and she distrusts strangers. But Chris’s detective work, forbidden by her father, takes her on a frightening journey that turns her world upside-down.

Simon Stephens’ adaptation of Mark Haddon’s bestselling, award-winning novel, "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" offers a richly theatrical exploration of this touching and bleakly humorous tale.
