National Theatre of London on the Big Screen: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

National Theatre of London and Fathom present a screening of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Sunday, August 3 and Wednesday, August 6.

Mark Haddon's celebrated, multi-award-winning novel is beautifully and imaginatively adapted into a stage play for the first time. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time has been hailed by The London Times as ‘a phenomenal combination of storytelling and spectacle’. Winner of 7 Olivier Awards in 2013, including Best New Play.

Christopher, fifteen years old, stands beside Mrs Shears' dead dog, Wellington. It has been speared with a garden fork, it is seven minutes after midnight and Christopher is under suspicion. He records each fact in his book to solve the mystery. He has an extraordinary brain, exceptional at maths but ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road, he detests being touched and he distrusts strangers. But his detective work, forbidden by his father, takes him on a frightening journey that upturns his world.
