Devon born actor Alexander Sharp is set to make his Broadway debut when he appears in the Marianne Elliott adaptation of The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time in September, which transfers across the pond from London after winning seven Olivier Awards in 2013.

Sharp, who's a recent Juilliard School graduate, will play the role of 15 year old Christopher, who's highly intelligent but ill-equipped to deal with everyday life. His previous credits include roles in documentaries Teenage and How to Boil a Frog, and TV series Shattered.
