Theater Talk: The Curious Incident with the Dog in the Night-Time

Director Marianne Elliott and playwright Simon Stephens discuss adapting Mark Haddon's best-selling novel "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" to create a powerful stage production that The New York Times calls "one of the most fully immersive works ever to wallop Broadway." They are joined by Broadway newcomer Alex Sharp, who plays the lead role of a 15-year-old, special needs child," giving an unforgettable performance that requires him to be on stage virtually every moment of this compelling play.

Theater Talk is a series devoted to the world of the stage. It began on New York television in 1993 and is co-hosted by Michael Riedel (Broadway columnist for the New York Post) and series producer Susan Haskins.
The program is one of the few independent productions on PBS and now airs weekly on Thirteen/WNET in New York and WGBH in Boston. Now, CUNY TV offers New York City viewers additional opportunities to catch each week's show. (Of course, Theater Talk is no stranger to CUNY TV, since the show is taped here each week before its first airing on Thirteen/WNET.)
The series is produced by Theater Talk Productions, a not-for-profit corporation and is funded by contributions from private foundations and individuals, as well as The New York State Council on the Arts.
