The dog is dead. Pierced with a garden fork. Standing on the lawn in the middle of the night beside Wellington is fifteen-year-old Christopher. His neighbour and the police believe he is responsible.

Determined to uncover the killer, Christopher turns detective, recording his findings in his special book. His quest will not be straightforward, however. He can remember all the world’s capital cities and every prime number up to seven thousand five hundred and seven, but he can’t bear being touched and he has never explored beyond the end of his road.

Solving the mystery will turn Christopher’s small world on its head in this heartwarming, life-affirming and bleakly funny drama adapted from Haddon’s bestselling, award-winning novel. 

First presented by the National Theatre in 2012 it garnered many accolades including the 2013 Olivier Award for Best Play and 2015 Tony Award for Best Play.
