This showcased event has concluded.
Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap is touring Australia to celebrate its 70th Anniversary, produced by John Frost for Crossroads Live Australia and directed by Australian theatre icon Robyn Nevin.
After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. A police detective, arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house; a spinster with a curious background; an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef; a retired Army major; a strange little man who claims his car has overturned in a drift; and a jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate.
The longest-running West End show, The Mousetrap has by far the longest run of any play anywhere in the world, with over 28,500 performances so far. This record-breaking murder mystery features a brilliant surprise finish, which the audience is traditionally asked not to reveal after leaving the theatre.
For 70 years, Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap has kept millions of people from every corner of the globe on the edge of their seats. It is the genre-defining murder mystery from the best-selling novelist of all time!
