The Mousetrap

I attended the opening night of Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap this past weekend, playing now at the Metro Theatre in Marpole. 

What more perfect way to kick off the spooky season than with a whodunnit mystery written by the Queen of mysteries herself? In The Mousetrap, we are snowed in somewhere in the English countryside and there is a murderer loose in the manor! Who could it be? I had my theories at intermission, but by the time the play concluded, I was definitely proven wrong. 

Set designer Emily Dotson did a fantastic job with this production! We are immediately transported to an old-school lodging house caught in the throes of a winter snow storm. It's cozy and classic, much like the play itself. You can't go wrong with one of the most enduring plays to hit the stage! 

The Mousetrap is on now at the Metro Theatre until October 7! Get your tickets here
