Based on Mark Haddon’s 2003 best-selling novel, the winner of more than 17 literary awards, this winner of the Tony Award® for Best Play centers around Christopher, just 15 years old, who uses his extraordinary brain to solve the mystery of his neighbor’s dog’s death. This production comes to life on stage as Christopher uses his unique gifts to work through his distrust of strangers and fear of the unknown in this journey that Time magazine calls “life-affirming and unmissable.” A great adventure for ages eleven and up.

ABOUT THE PLAY
“My name is Christopher John Francis Boone. I know all the countries of the world and the capital cities. And every prime number up to 7507.”
Fifteen-year-old Christopher has a mystery to solve. Someone has killed the next-door neighbor’s dog with a garden fork and Christopher is a suspect. Determined to discover who killed Wellington, and going against his father’s wishes, Christopher begins an investigation into the dog’s murder, asking questions, and recording his findings in a book. Though he has never previously ventured alone beyond the end of his street, Christopher’s detective work ends up taking him on a frightening journey that tears apart his once-familiar world.
Simon Stephens’ adaptation of Mark Haddon’s award-winning novel offers a richly theatrical exploration of this touching and bleakly humorous story.
“This adaptation by the acclaimed playwright Simon Stephens is intensely, innately theatrical; it is also funny and extremely moving…resonates with quality.” LONDON TELEGRAPH
“…just terrific…a profoundly moving play about adolescence, fractured families, mathematics, colors and lights….dazzling.” LONDON INDEPENDENT
“A beautiful, eloquent, dazzlingly inventive show about the wonders of life.” EVENING STANDARD
