Chapman University junior Aaron Lipp brings lived experience to playing Christopher, an autistic teenager, in ‘The Curious Incident of the Dog in the NIght-Time.’
College student Aaron Lipp will step into his first professional theatrical production when Chance Theater in Anaheim presents “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time,” which opens Saturday, Sept. 30.Until now, Lipp could only point to school-based performances, starting in sixth grade.
“Yes, it is a risk to cast somebody that’s an unknown,” said Hovis, a resident artist at Chance Theater for more than 20 years. “But we were really hoping to cast somebody who identified as neurodivergent. We really felt like it’s their story.”Neurodivergent embraces a broad swath of conditions and behaviors, from learning disabilities to anxiety disorders.
Haddon later wrote in his blog that his book is “a novel about difference, about being an outsider, about seeing the world in a surprising and revealing way.” “He plays this character who cannot be outwardly affectionate, but his heart is very present in every scene that he’s in.”
