A snowstorm strands seven strangers at Monkswell Manor. When a local woman is murdered, each of the guests becomes both suspect and sleuth. The group must uncover the murderer before one of them becomes the next victim. From the Queen of Mystery, Agatha Christie, The Mousetrap is the longest running play in the world.

Note: The Mousetrap is presented in the Studio Theatre.

A preshow talk is offered in the West Lobby 30 minutes prior to curtain.
