Christopher Boone is 15. He has an extraordinary brain and is exceptionally gifted at mathematics, but he struggles to interpret everyday life. When he discovers his neighbour’s dog, Wellington, dead in the garden — killed with a garden fork — Christopher sets out to solve the mystery. What begins as a logical investigation becomes a life-changing journey that challenges everything he thought he knew about the world, his family, and himself. This is an intergenerational ensemble production with a strong focus on storytelling, physical theatre, transformation, and rigorous ensemble practice.
