The Mousetrap
by Agatha Christie
Directed by Jan Levine Thal
Produced by Scott Albert Bennett
The Mousetrap is famous around the world as being the longest running show of any kind in the history of theatre (now in its 62nd year!) and now it’s back in Madison, produced by Strollers by popular demand.
The scene is set when a group of people gathered in a country house cut off by the snow discover that there is a murderer in their midst. Who can it be? One by one the suspicious characters reveal their pasts until at the last, nerve-shredding moment the identity and the motives are finally revealed.
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.
Audience members will have an opportunity to win a prize for guessing the murderer.
