The world’s longest-running show, Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap, is embarking on a new UK tour.
The tour celebrates the 75th anniversary of the classic whodunnit, which has continuously played in the West End since it first opened in 1952.
The Mousetrap tour will start at the Alexandra Theatre in Birmingham on 3 September 2026, and then visit Torquay, Cheltenham, Malvern, Crewe, Windsor, New Brighton, Manchester, Sheffield, Aylesbury, Eastbourne, Poole, Southend, Northampton, Cardiff, Woking, Plymouth, Bromley, Swindon, Stoke, Lichfield, Sunderland, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Milton Keynes, Truro, and York.
Casting and the creative team for the tour is to be announced.
Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap has captivated the world with silent clues, shifting shadows and the best kept secret in theatre history.
In the thriller, a shocking murder rattles London. Far from the chaos, a remote country guesthouse welcomes seven strangers seeking refuge. But when a police sergeant battles through a deadly snowstorm with a warning no one expects, it becomes clear the threat is already within their walls.
Earlier this year The Mousetrap celebrated its 30,000th performance in the West End and was presented with a Guinness World Records certificate.
Last week it was announced that acclaimed director Ola Ince will be refreshing the London production. A new cast is also joining the London production.
The Mousetrap continues to play in London’s West End at the St Martin’s Theatre, and has now extended booking to 3 January 2027.
