It was Atul Kumar's 19-year-old daughter, Noor, who introduced him to Mark Haddon's cult classic, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. "It was both fascinating and devastating," says Kumar, who adapted the book about a "different" 15-year-old teenager to the stage. "I cried a lot. But it is a story that gives you hope and direction.
