The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time

Revive Theatre presents Simon Stephens' acclaimed adaptation of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, based on the bestselling novel by Mark Haddon.

Fifteen-year-old Christopher Boone is an extraordinary teenager. He loves maths, values logic above all else, and sees the world differently from those around him. When he discovers that Wellington, his neighbour's dog, has been killed, Christopher sets out to solve the mystery.

What begins as a simple investigation soon uncovers secrets much closer to home. Determined to find the truth, Christopher embarks on a journey that takes him far beyond the safety of his familiar routines. Along the way he must confront his fears, navigate an overwhelming world, and discover a strength he never knew he possessed.

Winner of multiple Olivier and Tony Awards, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a powerful, funny and deeply moving story about family, courage and seeing the world through a different perspective. Combining inventive staging, striking visuals and heartfelt performances, this production brings Christopher's remarkable journey vividly to life.

Presented by Revive Theatre, following their successful productions of The 39 Steps, Dial M for Murder and One Man, Two Guvnors.
