Written by Simon Stephens and adapted from the novel by Mark Haddon, we follow Christopher John Francis Boone, a 15-year-old mathematical genius, as he tries to solve the mysterious death of his neighbor’s dog, Wellington. Along with solving this mystery, Christopher strives to find his place in the world. Christopher experiences intense isolation, and this play takes us along for all the moments of that isolation: happy and sad, easygoing and intense, good and bad. This play was one of the first of its kind to bring conversations about neurodiversity to the forefront.
