About The Mousetrap
Don't just see it... solve it! News spreads of a murder in London, and a group of strangers who find themselves snowed in at a country house discover - to their horror - that a killer is in their midst. Who can it be? One by one the suspicious characters reveal their sordid pasts. Which one is the murderer? Who will be their next victim? Can you solve the mystery before another “mouse” goes SNAP? This thrilling West End production has become as much of a London icon as Big Ben or Buckingham Palace. In her own inimitable style, Dame Agatha Christie has created an atmosphere of shuddering suspense and a brilliantly intricate plot where murder lurks around every corner. The Mousetrap has kept millions of people from every corner of the globe on the edge of their seats, for almost 70 years. HAVE YOUDUNNIT?
The Story Unfolds: Origins and Evolution
Join Detective Sgt. Trotter as he investigates the murder of Maureen Lyon at Monkswell Manor. The sleuth soon gets snowed at the manor alongside his seven suspects: guesthouse owners Mollie and Giles Ralston, the odd young Mr. Christopher Wren, the cantankerous Mrs. Boyle and her affable husband Major Metcalfe, the hostile Miss Casewell, and the mysterious Mr. Paravicini.
As the trapped guests grow ever more fearful of the murderer in their midst, the mystery unravels, culminating in a world-famous ending in which the audience is sworn to secrecy.
Behind the Scenes: Crafting the Spectacle
The Mousetrap has illustrious alumni, with previous cast members including Richard Attenborough, Tamsin Greig, Hugh Bonneville, Patrick Stewart, Julie Walters, and Miranda Hart. Now, these iconic eight roles have been taken on by some fantastic new West End stars.
Originally premiering at the Ambassadors Theatre in 1952, The Mousetrap has since transferred to the beautiful English Heritage Grade II-listed St. Martin’s Theatre, where you can see it today.
