'CURIOUS INCIDENT' Heads to Sheffield Station
There was a curious incident at Sheffield Station on Tuesday when the lead actor from the National Theatres' The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time arrived on Platform 1 - with his very unusual co-star - a white rat called Toby.
The multi award-winning production makes its Sheffield debut, at the Lyceum Theatre, this week, where it will run for two weeks until Saturday 25 September.
Chris Ashby plays the central role of Christopher Boone, who is fifteen years old. He has an extraordinary brain, and is exceptional at maths while ill-equipped to interpret everyday life, and his best friend is a white rat called Toby. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road, he detests being touched and distrusts strangers. His detective work, forbidden by his father, takes him and Toby on a dramatic and extraordinary train journey that upturns his world.
Chris Ashby shares the role of Christopher Boone with Joshua Jenkins.
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is at the Lyceum Theatre until Saturday 26 September. Tickets are priced from £14.00 - £32.00 and can be purchased by calling the Box Office on 0114 249 6000 or by visiting sheffieldtheatres.co.uk (a transaction fee of £1.50 (£1.00 online) applies to all bookings made at the Box Office, excluding cash).
