An amateur dramatic production

Sun 18 Jan, 2026 Archive
When 15-year-old Christopher Boone discovers his neighbour's dog, Wellington, has been killed with a garden fork, he sets out to solve the mystery—just like his favourite detective, Sherlock Holmes.

But Christopher, who is on the autism spectrum, processes the world in a precise, logical way, and his investigation soon leads him into a reality far more complicated than he expected. As he uncovers family secrets and navigates a world that often feels overwhelming, Christopher embarks on a courageous journey that takes him beyond his home and deep into his own independence.

Mark Haddon’s The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a compelling, deeply moving, and darkly funny novel that offers a unique perspective on truth, love, and what it means to find one’s place in the world.
