The 70th Anniversary tour of The Mousetrap coming to The Lowry, Salford

THE 70TH ANNIVERSARY UK AND IRELAND TOUR OF 

THE MOUSETRAP
THE WORLD’S LONGEST RUNNING PLAY

featuring Todd Carty & Gwyneth Strong

Monday 8th to Saturday 13th April 2024

The 70th Anniversary tour of The Mousetrap, the longest running play in the world, continues to enthrall audiences and is coming to The Lowry, Salford next month from Monday 8th to Saturday 13th April.

The cast of the iconic murder-mystery on tour will include Todd Carty (EastEnders, Grange Hill, Dancing on Ice) who plays Major Metcalf and Gwyneth Strong (known for playing Cassandra  in Only Fools and Horses) as Mrs. Boyle. 

They will be joined by Neerja Naik as Mollie Ralston, Barnaby Jago as Giles Ralston, Shaun McCourt as Christopher Wren, Amy Spinks as Miss Casewell, Steven Elliot as Mr. Paravicini, and Michael Ayiotisas Detective Sgt. Trotter.

As news spreads of a murder in London, a group of seven strangers find themselves snowed in at Monkswell Manor, a remote countryside guesthouse. When a police sergeant arrives, the guests discover – to their horror – that a killer is in their midst. One by one, the suspicious characters reveal their sordid pasts. Which one is the murderer? Who will be their next victim? 

Genre-defining murder mystery The Mousetrap, written by Agatha Christie, the world’s best-selling novelist of all time, premiered at Theatre Royal Nottingham in 1952 and toured the UK before opening in the West End where it continues its record-breaking engagement at the St Martin’s Theatre, 70 years on. The iconic thriller’s 70th Anniversary tour also opened in Nottingham in September 2022, and continues to travel throughout the UK and Ireland, marking its milestone anniversary by visiting over 70 theatres, including all cities to which it originally played 70 years ago, plus many more.

 

The Mousetrap is produced by Adam Spiegel with Direction by Ian Talbot OBE and Denise Silvey.
