Mousetrap in London
It’s a murder mystery that has been thrilling theatre audiences for over seventy years and is still as popular as ever. More than ten million people have seen Agatha Christie’s classic plot presented on stage since the play first opened in 1952.
Why you should see The Mousetrap
- Seeing this production is like stepping into theatre history - an experience every theatre lover should have at least once!
- The best thing about The Mousetrap is the fact that nobody who has seen the show reveals the killer's identity – an amazing feat after over seventy years in total on stage.
- This murder mystery is packed with suspense, intrigue, and classic Christie misdirection.
The Mousetrap – The story
It’s winter. Five guests turn up at a rural hotel and are soon completely snowed in. A policeman turns up to warn the guests there’s a murderer on the run in the area. The guests are investigated individually, and a cunning trap is eventually laid to reveal the murderer.
About The Mousetrap
Agatha Christie never imagined The Mousetrap would last so long on the stage. It premiered in 1952 at the Ambassadors Theatre before moving next door to the St Martin's Theatre two years later in 1974. It was originally written as a radio play entitled Three Blind Mice as a birthday present for Queen Mary before it was adapted into a stage production. Today The Mousetrap continues to hold the title as the longest-running show in the world, it's a classic that keeps on giving!
The Mousetrap cast
The current cast includes Lara Lemon as Mollie Ralston, Harry Bradley as Giles Ralston, Richard Leeming as Christopher Wren, Rekha John-Cheriyan as Mrs Boyle, Owen Oakeshott as Major Metcalf, Grace Darling as Miss Casewell, Alasdair Buchan as Mr Paravicini, and Daniel Rainford as Detective Sgt. Trotter. Additional members of the company include Liv Koplick, Clive Marlowe, Richard Parnwell, Ben Riddle, and Cathryn Sherman who will understudy various roles.
The suspenseful plot and legendary twist ending keep audiences on the edge of their seats. Experiencing this iconic Agatha Christie play in the heart of London’s West End is a must for any theatre lover or mystery fan.

Ein Klassiker den man gesehen haben sollte.Schönes, altes und kleines Theater, wie die meisten West -End Theater, leider recht beengt. Wenig Beinfreiheit und auch der Seiten Abstand zum Nachbarn fehlt leider. Ich bin relativ gross und nicht übergewichtig, trotzdem stieß ich ständig an meinen Sitznachbarn 🤷 Aber die Show war es allemal wert, ich bin dafür gut 12 Stunden mit dem Reisebus gefahren. Meine Sitznachbarn sind sogar extra für diese Show aus Kanada eingeflogen 😮 Die Geschichte wurde liebevoll umgesetzt, ein Klassiker den man mal gesehen haben sollte.

It had a great plot with humour and fun weaved throughout to keep you engaged. It's a long one though so make sure you wear something comfortable! Seats are quite small and uncomfortable with little leg room and not great for tall people so that's the only thing which stopped it getting 5* from me!
