What can I expect from The Mousetrap?

Audiences can expect drama that will have them on the edge of their seats and a brilliant plot for an unforgettable night at the theatre.

As news spreads of a murder in London, a group of seven strangers find themselves far from the chaos in a remote countryside guesthouse, Monkswell Manor. 

To their surprise, a police sergeant arrives on the hotel doorstep after battling through a deadly snowstorm and informs the hotel guests of a nearby murder – and they’re all suspects.

Every whisper hides a clue. Every story masks a lie. And as suspicion tightens its grip, one question chills the room: who among them is capable of murder?

How long is The Mousetrap?

The Mousetrap play runs for approximately two hours and 20 minutes, including a short interval.
