Lehigh Valley Charter School for the Performing Arts the Curious Incident
Manager's notes
An interesting claiming exists in creating a product of this play by Simon Stephens, adapted from the popular award-winning novel by Mark Haddon. The central character in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, 15-year-erstwhile Christopher Boone, is evidently neurodivergent based upon his ain descriptions of how he encounters and senses the world. Nonetheless, in neither the play nor the novel does anyone explicitly state that Christopher is on the spectrum. We are left with searching to sympathize the working of his mind based upon his own words in the book he writes that is central to this story, and the basis of the play we are all experiencing.
Additionally, the characters in the story who populate his schoolhouse, like his primary support Siobhan, decide along the manner to turn Christopher's book about his attempt to solve the mystery of who killed Wellington into a school play. And so – we are left with multiple questions and levels of reality. Are nosotros seeing a play well-nigh Christopher'south detective story, or are we seeing a play about a schoolhouse play based upon his volume? This is never made explicit, and I recollect the point is to proceed united states slightly off-balance nearly what is truth and reality – much similar it oftentimes is experienced past Christopher himself.
With this production we have attempted to use the tools of the theatre: calorie-free, sound, shape, etc., in innovative ways to help united states of america understand something about how Christopher perceives the world. We are led by his own words as he describes his likes, dislikes, thinking, behavior, senses, and interactions with the others in the story. Christopher is our narrator, and information technology is through his own retelling of his journey that we understand how he navigates the world and people around him.
As we worked on the show I realized that Christopher'southward journey is really a hero's journey as nosotros understand it in classical mythology. Much like Odysseus, he sets out upon a quest, and along the way learns much virtually himself, and the world, and changes the lives of others. While he initially sets out to solve a murder mystery, as information technology often happens in heroes' stories, his journey becomes almost so much more.
In telling this story about a neurodivergent character nosotros have been helped along the way by diverse consultants and experts who helped our team deepen our understanding of various aspects of the experience of autistic people and their families. I want to securely thank our resources team of Andrew Duff, Dr, Pamela Wolfe, Dr. Diane Williams, Daniel and Laura Robinson, and Bellamarie Bregar, who along the way and at diverse times have helped guide our team and brought resources to this process and then we could explore Christopher's story with greater understanding and empathy.

Collaborators, friends and interviewers invariably comment on Stephens'due south larger than life demeanor – friendly, irreverent, and endlessly energetic. He lives in Manchester with his wife and three children. He is a professor at Manchester Metropolitan Academy and an Associate Playwright at the Royal Court. Near recently, Stephens adjusted Jose Saramago's novel, Blindness into a one-person performance. The production premiered at the National Theatre and moved to Broadway.
