Mousetrap description

St Martin's Theatre is home to the classic play, Agatha Christie's legendary Mousetrap. It's great to see successive generations enjoying the plot just as much as ever. While times may change, an excellent murder mystery lives on and on. Join more than ten million people who have already loved it.

As the world and West End’s longest running play, The Mousetrap's reputation goes from strength to strength. The plot twists and turns, the audience are on the edge of their seats throughout and everyone leaves with a huge smile on their face.

This is a wonderful example of a classic country house murder mystery, so climb on board and prepare for a treat you’ll remember for life. Like the other ten million audience members who’ve seen it before you, you’ll hold the secret of the plot close to your heart, keeping it just as mysterious as it has remained for more than seventy years.

The Mousetrap plot – Wonderfully twisty and turny

The story? A group of strangers with murky pasts are invited to a remote country house only to discover, to their horror, that there's a murderer in their midst. One by one the characters reveal their real selves until at the last, nerve shredding moment the identity of the murderer – and the elusive motive - are revealed.
