Tony-Winning The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time Sets Broadway Closing Date

This is not a super good day. The much-loved Tony-winning The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time will shutter on September 4 at Broadway's Barrymore Theatre. At time of closing, the production will have played 23 previews and 800 regular performances.

Based on the novel by Mark Haddon, Simon Stephens' The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time follows Christopher—a fifteen-year-old who is exceptionally intelligent but ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. When he falls under suspicion for killing his neighbor’s dog, he sets out to identify the true culprit, which leads to an earth-shattering discovery and a journey that will change his life forever.

The play premiered at the U.K.’s National Theatre in 2012 and went on to transfer to the West End and win seven 2013 Olivier Awards; it is still playing at London's Gielgud Theatre. Curious Incident took home five 2015 Tony Awards, including Best Play and Best Leading Actor for Alex Sharp. The Broadway production officially opened on October 5, 2014.

The cast currently includes Tyler Lea as Christopher, Rosie Benton as Siobhan, Enid Graham as Judy, Andrew Long as Ed and Nancy Robinette as Mrs. Alexander. Benjamin Wheelwright plays Christopher at certain performances.
