On the Cripe Stage…

Fifteen-year-old math whiz Christopher Boone lives with his divorced dad in Swinton, a working-class town west of London. After being falsely accused of killing a neighbor’s dog, Christopher—who is brilliant but has difficulty dealing with the sounds and stresses of everyday life—decides to investigate the crime. The secrets he unearths prompt him to leave his trusted teacher and the familiar streets of his hometown for a life-changing train trip to London. Based on Mark Haddon’s best-selling 2003 novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a thrilling and heartwarming adventure story featuring an unforgettable young hero.

Please Note: This production contains some moments of sensory intensity — including lighting, video, and sound effects — reflecting the content of the novel and autistic experience. There is also strong language, violent behavior and domestic violence, and smoke/haze effects.

A "Relaxed Atmosphere Performance" is perfect for anyone who would benefit from a more relaxed environment. These performances allow for noise and movement in the auditorium, re-entry when needed, and a chill-out space for any one who may need time away from the performance. This includes audience members with dementia, anxiety, Tourette’s, bowel and bladder conditions, an autism spectrum condition, or a learning disability.
PLEASE NOTE: Relaxed Atmosphere performances have no adjustments made to the performance. They are not suitable for customers with sensory sensitivities.
