What is The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time about?

Based on Mark Haddon’s worldwide, best-selling novel, the story follows a fifteen-year-old boy, Christopher, who discovers his neighbours’ dead dog. Mrs Shears’ dog isn’t just dead though but has been speared with a garden fork, and at precisely seven minutes past midnight. However, when Christopher is found standing over the dog’s body, he is held under suspicion. Christopher knows it wasn’t him and makes it his mission to solve the case! He has an extraordinary brain and is exceptional at maths, although struggles with his perceptions on everyday life. Forbidden by his father to carry out his detective work, Christopher must embark on this frightening venture alone, despite never having been to the end of his road alone.

The success of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Curious began as a novel by Mark Haddon which was published in 2003. The novel has received mass praise, having been translated into 44 different languages and selling more than 5.5 million copies across the world. It has won over 17 literary awards including the UK’s Whitbread Book of the Year Award. The novel was adapted into a stage play by Simon Stephens and was premiered at London’s National Theatre in 2012 and later transferred to the West End’s Apollo Theatre in 2013. Its initial West End run saw the production win seven Olivier Awards. The play transferred to Broadway in 2014 and ran for just under two years; and won multiple awards including five Tony Awards. The play has had various tours including UK, US, Australia and International, as well as productions in Mexico, Seoul and South Africa.

Spotlight on Simon Stephens, playwright of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Not even a decade ago, the West End had a huge hit on their hands: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. Having premiered at the Royal National Theatre on 2 August 2012, the play quickly became a London theatre sensation, taking home 7 Olivier Awards in 2013 out of 8 nominations, including Best New Play. Adapted for the stage from the 2003 Mark Haddon novel of the same name, The Curious Incident is widely regarded as a brilliant piece of work, so much so that it's hard to believe it was playwright Simon Stephens' first-ever adaptation. Now with the recent tour announcement and a new London run at the Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre, there's no better time than now to cast the spotlight on award-winning English playwright Simon Stephens, the mastermind behind the West End Curious phenomenon.

London Theatre Review: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Excluding musicals, this is one of the best plays I've seen this year. Why? The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time took my emotions on a roller coaster ride and also challenged my neurotypical thought processes, prejudices, and beliefs. If like me you have read the book you will be delighted with this intelligent adaptation. But you don’t need to have read the book to understand and enjoy the play. It is, arguably, better than the book in some ways; yes I said it.
