The Mousetrap

MUHS Thespian Troupe #3406 A.T.O.R.T. Presents: AGATHA CHRISTIE'S "The Mousetrap" A group of strangers is stranded in a boarding house during a snow storm, one of whom is a murderer. The suspects include the newly married couple who run the house, and the suspicions in their minds nearly wreck their perfect marriage. Others are 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. Into their midst comes a policeman, traveling on skis. He no sooner arrives, when the jurist is killed. Two down, and one to go. To get to the rationale of the murderer's pattern, the policeman probes the background of everyone present, and rattles a lot of skeletons. Another famous Agatha Christie switch finish! Chalk up another superb intrigue for the foremost mystery writer of her time. THIS IS THE WORLD'S LONGEST RUNNING PLAY. IT HAS BEEN PLAYING CONTINUOUSLY IN LONDON SINCE 1952! 65 YEARS AND COUNTING!
