We booked the tickets a couple of months prior to the performance when we realised we had one available night in London prior to flying back to Sydney. We are really glad we went. The acting was really good, the plot moved along well and the twists along the way were not completely predictable. Obviously can't say who did it but thoroughly recommend The Mousetrap. We can see why it has been running for so long.

Very talented actors, all of them really modelled their characters. The wit in the play. Beautiful ancient building, lovely traditional atmosphere. Unfortunately there was a constant cold draught where I was sitting (stalls). I first thought it was to enhance the situation in the play, being cut off by the snow, I had to learn though that this probably was not an intention.

Even before we entered the theatre, the door staff were very helpful and pleasant. We had seats in the upper circle, and the view of the stage was great. The performance was magnificent, the actors brilliant, and of course we can't give away "who done it". Would definitely encourage people to see this show.

The actors brought the characters to life with emotion, energy, and authenticity. The storytelling was engaging, and the entire production was well executed. It was a wonderful and memorable experience, and I would highly recommend this play to anyone who appreciates great live theatre.

The play gripped my attention within the first 10 minutes. The actors were excellent, with comedy interspersed at the right moment. The ending was not suspected by my daughter, who was with me. I had a suspicion at half time. As requested by the cast, my lips are sealed.

Critics reviews

“At the end of this week, the world’s longest-running show will complete its 65th year in the West End. It is salutary to reflect that when it opened, Winston Churchill was prime minister and there was still rationing.”

- Evening Standard UK

“It has passed into the realm of great British institutions, as much a highlight of the tourist trail as the Tower of London or Madame Tussauds.”

- Sunday Express

The show was a lot of fun and the cast was easy to hear and understand even for this American. However the theater seats are badly in need of recussioning as by the end of the play my wife and I were both quite uncomfortable
