The play begins when fifteen-year-old Christopher Boone discovers his neighbour’s dog lying dead in the garden.
He decides to investigate, notebook in hand, just like his favourite detective, Sherlock Holmes. But Christopher sees the world differently, noticing patterns, numbers, and details most people miss. His investigation unravels more than just the mystery of the dog, it uncovers family secrets that send him on a journey far from home.
The play brings us inside Christopher’s extraordinary mind using light, sound, and projections to make the stage feel like his thoughts come to life.
Winner of multiple Tony and Olivier Awards, it’s a gripping, moving story about truth, trust, and seeing the world through someone else’s eyes.
