Whodunit?  Audiences at Stoneham Theatre will ponder that question when Agatha Christie's classic murder mystery "The Mousetrap" takes the stage, playing June 2 - 19.  In the world's longest running play, Christie has created an atmosphere of suspense coupled with an intricate plot where murder lurks around every corner. 

Set in the 1940s, this crime drama by the most famous mystery writer of all time, centers around a young couple who inherit a roomy old house and decide to turn it into a bed-and-breakfast. 

They don't know their guests - and they learn how little they may even know about each other - when the house is isolated by a storm and the phone lines go down.  One of the guests is killed and all the suspects are in the house.  Minute by minute, the plot twists and turns as the audience finds out who died, who done it and why.

"The Mousetrap" has been running in London for the past fifty years, longer than any other play or musical in history. 

Directed by Adam Zahler, the cast of this production of "The Mousetrap" features Lisa Morse, Robert Antonelli, Tasso Feldman, Paula Plum, Dafydd Rees, Whitney Cohen, Richard Snee and Lewis Wheeler.
