The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

January 23, 2019 - March 29, 2019 | Gompertz Theatre

WINNER OF FIVE TONY AWARDS AND 7 OLIVIER AWARDS INCLUDING BEST PLAY. Christopher Boone is exceptionally intelligent, but ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He sets out to investigate the bizarre death of a neighbor’s dog, inspiring a series of events that expose far greater mysteries. As the clues fall into place, they reveal a community of disparate characters, a family with secrets, and a gifted mind in a complicated relationship with the world. This international hit takes you inside the extraordinary mind of a boy who views the world as most of us can only imagine.

The Curious Incident of The Dog in The Night-Time, by Simon Stephens and based on the novel by Mark Haddon, includes some adult language and mature situations. Suitable for audiences 16 and up.
