Last weekend we attended a performance of Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap. It was put on by the local English music and drama society (M.A.D.S.) and took place in the town of Issigeac which is about a 45 minute drive for us. We had dinner at the house of friends before hand and then off to the theatre.
The performances were all sold out. There were 120 (mostly Brits) on the Thurday night when we went and 150 were going to squeeze in the hall on Friday and Saturday.
The Mousetrap is the longest running play in the workld and has been playing for 57 years in London. The hook at the end is that the director comes out on stage and asks the audience not to reveal the identity of the murderer as the ending has quite a twist.
A fun evening.
