Galway Arts Centre’s Galway Youth Theatre

The Curious Incident of The Dog in The Nighttime

adapted by Simon Stephens
from the novel by Mark Hadden

Christopher, fifteen years old, stands beside Mrs Shears’ dead dog, Wellington. He has been speared with a garden fork just after midnight, and Christopher falls under suspicion.

Determined to uncover the truth, he begins recording every fact. Brilliant at maths but challenged by daily life, his journey will change everything. Directed by Jarlath Tivnan.
