The Mousetrap from the director The characters in this play by Agatha Christie, the master of mystery, carefully reveal clues about themselves a little at a time and tension builds as we begin to wonder about the eight people we meet. As the events progress, we realize that these characters are hiding something. They must be. The Mousetrap conviently brings together apparent strangers in a out-of-the-way guest house. Why are they there? Do they know each other? Who is telling the truth? Who can we trust? Follow the clues to the ultimate and thrilling conclusion. Here s hoping you enjoy the wild ride to the finish. And remember once you have seen the play, you can never reveal the secret to anyone; this is one secret you cannot share!
