"The Mousetrap" is a murder mystery play that holds the record for the world's longest-running play. It first opened in London's West End in 1952 and has been performed continuously since then. Now celebrating 70 years, and returning by popular demand, AGATHA CHRISTIE’S THE MOUSETRAP has kept millions of people from every corner of the globe on the edge of their seats.
The play is a classic whodunit, set in a guesthouse where a group of strangers becomes involved in the investigation of a murder. Part of the play's intrigue is the tradition of keeping the identity of the murderer a closely guarded secret. Audience members are traditionally asked not to reveal the twist ending.
