Preview - The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time - People's Theatre

Showing this week at the People’s Theatre in Heaton: THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME, the acclaimed stage adaptation of Mark Haddon’s bestselling novel.


“I am going to find out who killed Wellington and make it a project. Even though Father told me not to.”


At seven minutes after midnight, fifteen-year-old Christopher Boone discovers his neighbour’s dog dead in the street. Determined to uncover the truth, Christopher embarks on a detective mission that takes him far beyond the end of his road for the very first time. What begins as a mystery becomes an extraordinary journey that will change his life forever.

Funny, moving, and visually captivating, THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME invites audiences to experience the world through Christopher’s eyes in a powerful exploration of family, trust, courage, and what it means to be different.

Following worldwide acclaim and multiple award-wins (including seven Olivier Awards for the National Theatre’s 2012 premiere), this gripping adaptation brings Christopher’s unforgettable adventure from Swindon to London vividly to life on stage.

Tickets are available from the People’s Theatre Box Office on 0191 265 5020 (option 2) and online at www.peoplestheatre.co.uk
