A “curious” coincidence

November 20, 2017 By UW READi Lab

In case anyone has not heard of “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time,” it is a best-selling novel — and Tony Award-winning play — that features a teenager with ASD. A recent New York Times article highlighted Mickey Rowe, who is the first actor with an ASD diagnosis to play the leading role of Christopher, a 15-year-old with ASD who tries to solve a “curious” murder-mystery. Rowe is a graduate of University of Washington, and believes that his role in the play sends an important message: “I think it’s theater’s job to change the world… it has a lot more power than it knows it has. And with that power comes great responsibility.” The play is no longer running at the Syracuse Theater in New York, but you can check out the full article here for more information about Mickey and his amazing journey to stardom.
