Mousetrap 
returns to the Opera House

The scene is set when a group of people gathered in a country house cut off by the snow discover, to their horror, that there is a murderer in their midst. Who can it be?

One by one the suspicious characters reveal their sordid pasts until at the last, nerve-shredding moment the identity and the motive 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.

Celebrating 25,000 performances in its 62nd year, this Guinness world record-breaking production has featured a staggering 403 actors.

Among these 403 actors were the late Lord Richard Attenborough and his wife Sheila Sim who appeared in the first ever production of The Mousetrap on November 25, 1952. Lord Attenborough’s connection with The Mousetrap continued long after his casting as Sergeant Trotter through his work as a trustee with the Mousetrap Theatre Projects, a leading theatre education charity.

Tickets for The Mousetrap begin at £20.50 and can be purchased online at www.goh.co.uk, in person at the Box Office located in the theatre foyer and via telephone on 9024 1919.
