The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Public booking now open

The internationally celebrated novel that captivated 10 million readers is coming in a brand-new staging more thrilling than ever.

Christopher Boone is gifted with a brilliant mind for numbers but unsettled by the unpredictability of people and everyday life. When a neighbour’s dog is discovered killed, he finds himself under suspicion. Determined to prove his innocence, Christopher becomes both detective and suspect, drawn into a mystery that grows darker and more complex with every clue he uncovers.

What begins as the search for a culprit soon reveals secrets closer to home, forcing him to confront truths that will test his courage, his family, and his understanding of trust, independence, and the wider world.

Starring Joe McFadden (The Shawshank Redemption - UK Tour; 2:22 A Ghost Story - Gielgud Theatre; Strictly Come Dancing winner 2017) and EastEnders favourite Charlie Brooks (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - UK Tour; Ocean at the End of the Lane - National Theatre) as Chris' parents - Ed and Judy.

Inventive, gripping, and moving, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time combines the intrigue of a whodunnit with a powerful coming-of-age story in an unforgettable theatrical event.
