To grow up one must experience new things that challenge the mind like taking responsibility, having a break in trust and losing a loved one whether it is temporary or permanently.

Disability and associated concepts are major aspects of Haddon’s novel. The nature of the book, however, allows for a perspective of disability that is not commonly thought about; as Christopher attempts to solve a mystery, his specific talents and independent nature allow for the ability within his disability to shine through. Mark Haddon’s novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time makes the statement that disability is not entirely a negative thing, and this is shown through Christopher’s diligence to overcome obstacles. I am going to assess this argument by discussing three major aspects of Christopher’s life through which this is shown, including his home life, his school life, and his life in social situations.

On Thursday 18th June 2015 I went to see ‘The Curious Incident of The Dog In the Night-Time’ at the Gielgud Theatre in London. I knew before I went to see the performance was that it is about a boy with autism. I was told from others that had seen the play that it was really good so I had reasonably high expectations. The play is set in modern day. Throughout the play we see a boy called Christopher who has autism, the play is shown from his point of view. We see his thoughts and feelings and how he reacts to different situations and why. There are several themes within the play such as honesty, loneliness and gaining a deeper insight into autism.

A scene that showed physical theatre was where Christopher first meets Mrs Alexander. During this scene, there is a conversation between the two of them and then she goes inside to get something for him. They used physical theatre to exaggerate the features of an old aged pensioner by making her look slower than an actual person would walk. The ensemble contributed to this by doing fast and sudden movements to give the effect of time passing by, Keating also contributed to this by doing the same movements. During this period, Mrs Alexander walked at a very slow pace and taking elongated steps to make it look like she was walking a lot slower than she would do to add contrast into this scene and exaggerate these features to the audience. This had the effect of showing how Christopher sometimes exaggerates things from what they really are. This added to his character, his personality and developed what the audience’s perspective on him was. Another scene where physical theatre is used to help create effect is when Christopher is on the train going to London. Every time there is the sound of them shuddering or bumping on the train track all the ensemble on the train as well as Christopher move in the same direction as if they are getting pushed to the side. This helped to make the audience believe that they are on a

In this zone, the mid night zone, there are an abundance of hydro thermal vents that we are not able to go near.
