THE MOUSETRAP COMING TO DARLINGTON

The Mousetrap, the legendary whodunnit from Dame Agatha Christie, has announced a major national tour opening in January 2019 starring Gwyneth Strong and is coming to Darlington Hippodrome in April.

This unstoppable West End hit has been delighting theatregoers for 67 years with its macabre murder mystery. Following a record-breaking 60th anniversary tour in 2012, this timeless thriller The Mousetrap returns by popular demand, embarking on an extensive new tour that will travel the length and breadth of the country giving audiences all across the UK the opportunity to discover theatre’s best kept secret.

Trotter), Nick Biadon (Giles Ralston), Lewis Chandler (Christopher Wren), John Griffiths (Major Metcalf), Harriett Hare (Mollie Ralston) and Saskia Vaigncourt-Strallen (Miss Caswell).

Gwyneth Strong is best known for her role in the BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses in which she starred in the role of Cassandra.
