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.

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

The best thing about The Mousetrap is the fact that nobody who has seen the show reveals the identity of the killer – an amazing feat after over seventy years in total on stage - so unless you see it yourself, you’ll never find out!

This superb vintage whodunit comes from the pen of world famous mystery writer Agatha Christie and it is jam packed with thrills and spills. It’s a musical that consciously avoids big name actors to keep the show fresh, and one cast member managed to notch up more than 4,500 performances.

The recorded voice of Deryck Guyler, the show’s radio bulletin announcer, is the same voice played at the premiere. Despite the story’s age and fame, you’ll have a fantastic time trying to unravel the plot as the suspense holds the audience in a tight grasp from start to finish. The mysterious hotel is portrayed vividly on stage and is guaranteed to have you sitting on the edge of your seat as the intrigue unfolds.

Agatha Christie never imagined The Mousetrap would last so long on the stage. She predicted it would be over in eight months. It’s strange to realise that Winston Churchill was Prime Minister when the show first took to the stage, and today it’s the longest-running show in British theatre as well as in the world, a classic that just keeps on giving. Oddly enough, the show never migrated to the silver screen and there’s no Mousetrap the movie because the producers are determined to preserve the mystery exclusively for theatre audiences.

The Mousetrap cast

The current cast includes Lucy Doyle (The Play That Goes Wrong) as Mollie Ralston, Daniel Cech-Lucas (Sherlock Holmes: The Final Curtain) as Giles Ralston, Lynton Appleton (Richard II) as Christopher Wren, Jules Melvin (Witness for the Prosecution) as Mrs Boyle, Ben Onwukwe (The 47th) as Major Metcalf, Elyssia Roe (Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet) as Miss Casewell, Lorenzo Martelli (A Midsummer Night’s Dream) as Mr Paravicini, and Sam Stafford (Ready, Steady, Crooks) as Detective Sgt Trotter. Additional cast members include Georgina Duncan, Sam Hollis, Clive Marlowe, Georgie Rhys and Ben Riddle. Philip Franks directs, Denise Silvey continues as the artistic director, and Adam Spiegel continues as the producer.

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.

Quite ordinary

Storyline was expectedly not original and needed better character development to bring some excitement and originality to it. Failed on both counts. The main character was excellent, the rest struggled to make an impact. The situation development was good but then the directorial effort lacked the slick uncovering of the "who dunnit"

This show is one I would definitely recommend, I loved the old fashioned setting and the character development through the story. 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!

Have been wanting to see this for 40 years. Unfortunately we had tickets for the first night that the theatres were shut down due to Covid!! Have just got around to rebooking and had a great time. It was not quite what I expected - I thought it would be entirely serious but it had some laughs which made it feel a bit more like farce than a straight play.

The Mousetrap - St Martin's Theatre It’s an iconic thriller. It has been on stage non-stop in the West End for an awesome 7 decades. Agatha Christie would be thrilled. Now the initial casting has been announced for the play’s glittering 70th Anniversary tour. This is the longest running play in the world, and it is set to visit more than 70 venues throughout the UK and Ireland from September 2022.

The Mousetrap - St Martin's Theatre This is the world's longest-running play, and it feels entirely appropriate for Agatha Christie's classic thriller to return and lead the West End's way out of the darkness of lockdown into the light of a new world. The show resumes on 17th May, following the government road map's Stage 3 guidelines, including two entirely separate casts stuffed with dazzling TV stars, iconic movie stars and brilliant Olivier winners. The fun kicks off at the St. Martin’s Theatre – see you there!
