LEGENDARY WHO-DUNNIT TO HIT DARLINGTON
The
Mousetrap
Darlington Civic Theatre
Monday
8th to Saturday 13th
February 2016
The
record-breaking 60th anniversary tour of The Mousetrap comes to Darlington
Civic Theatre from Monday 8 to Saturday 13 February.
The
Mousetrap is famous around the world for being the longest-running show of any
kind in the history of theatre, with over 25,000 performances. Now the 60th
anniversary production is back starring Louise Jameson (Dr Who, EastEnders, Doc
Martin) as Mrs Boyle.
The
scene is set when a group of people gathered in a country house cut off by the
snow discover, to their horror, that there is a murderer in their midst. Who
can it be? One by one the suspicious characters reveal their sordid pasts until
at the last, nerve-shredding moment the identity and the motive are finally
revealed.
In
her own inimitable style, Dame Agatha Christie has created an atmosphere of
shuddering suspense and a brilliantly intricate plot where murder lurks around
every corner.
Louise
Jameson is best well-known for her long-running roles as Leela, a companion of
Tom Baker’s Doctor in Doctor Who, Susan Young in Bergerac¸
Eleanor Glasson in Doc Martin, and Rosa di Marco in EastEnders.
In addition to Louise’s illustrious roles on screen, she has also appeared on
stage in Love, Loss and What I Wore (The Mill, Sonning), Noises Off (Mercury
Theatre), Gutted (Theatre Royal, Stratford East) and Oedipus (The
Liverpool Everyman & Nottingham Playhouse).
Louise
said: “I thought about doing something special for my 65th birthday in 2016.
Just how did I get to be 65? The same way The Mousetrap has run for nearly that
length of time I suppose, so we’ll be celebrating together. That’s quite
special.”
