Not only has everybody heard of Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap, everybody’s also actually seen the show... haven’t they? 

Okay, maybe not, but as the play debuted some 75 years ago and has been running non-stop in the West End ever since (Covid disruption aside, of course), it’s fair to say its capacity to put bums on seats is absolutely beyond question. 

Not surprisingly, the play is the world’s longest-running show, and has been performed in excess of 30,000 times. 

This touring version stars Nicholas Bailey and Susan Penhaligon.
