“A beautiful, dazzlingly inventive show about the wonders of life.”
-Evening Standard
The National Theatre's Olivier and Tony Award® -winning production of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time was described as ‘life-affirming and unmissable.’ (Time). This smash-hit production brings Mark Haddon's best-selling novel to thrilling life on stage. And now our Teen Theatre students have the incredible opportunity to bring this show to life once again.
Christopher, fifteen years old, stands beside Mrs. Shears’ dead dog.
It has been speared with a garden fork, it is seven minutes after midnight and Christopher is under suspicion. He records each fact in the book he is writing to solve the mystery of who murdered Wellington. 
He has an extraordinary brain. He is exceptional at maths, while everyday life presents some barriers. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road; he detests being touched and he distrusts strangers. When he falls under suspicion for killing his neighbor’s dog, it takes him on a journey that upturns his world.
Come join Christopher on his revelatory journey. And when you arrive at the destination, you will be changed.

Parental Advisory: There is some strong language in this production. This occurs at specific points by one character in a heightened state of emotion. There is also some rude language used more for comic effect.
The production contains references to and/or staging of: violent behavior, meltdowns and distress caused by sensory overload.  It also depicts some negative attitudes towards people who are neuroatypical.
