ABOUT The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Marianne Elliott’s acclaimed National Theatre production of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time returns to the West End for a limited season at the Piccadilly Theatre.
Winner of 7 Olivier Awards – including Best New Play and the Best Director award, the play is based on Mark Haddon’s multi-award winning and best selling novel.
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is running from 29 November 2018 until 27 April 2019 at the Piccadilly Theatre, London.
THE STORY
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, exceptional at maths while ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road, he detests being touched and he distrusts strangers.
But his detective work, forbidden by his father, takes him on a frightening journey that upturns his world.
