Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap, an intriguing whodunit on stage, will be making its rounds in this region.
IN the dead of winter, seven people are trapped by a snowstorm in a remote country guesthouse somewhere in the English countryside. The fire burning cheerily in Monkswell Manor’s fireplace does little to brighten the mood of the guests who are stuck until help arrives. If they survive the night, that is. There’s a murderer on the loose, you see, and he – or she – is among them; hiding in plain sight and waiting for the right time to strike.
