Given tickets to see The Mousetrap at St Martins Theatre as a Christmas present and thoroughly enjoyed the day in London. We arrived at Victoria coach station with a couple of hours to spare before the matinee performance and had a pleasant stroll through St James park seeing the sights and then grabbing a coffee in Trafalgar Square. At the theatre we queued briefly and then greeted by pleasant chap who directed us to our seats. We were in the upper circle which is very high up and has quite steep steps but it all added to the experience. The seating is old fashioned and quite cramped if you are on the larger side but comfortable enough for a couple of hours. The play itself was brilliantly performed by an excellent cast, you could hear every word even though we were high up, and it was thoroughly enjoyable way to spend an afternoon.

Lovely old theatre, we had box b1, which gives a restricted view but the fun of sitting in a box it was great. The play is Agatha Christie so excellent, have seen it 3 times and it’s still entertaining. The staff at this theatre were excellent my friend was on crutches and they were so helpful getting her into her seat. Then at the interval I went to collect our drinks but as they were in glass I couldn’t take them to the seat and they helped me by fetching plastic glasses. The theatre is very fitting for the Mouse trap.

Went to see The Mouse trap yesterday afternoon, the Theatre is absolutely lovely as always, and being a great fan of Agatha Christie, just had to come and see this play again. I was a little bit disappointed this time with a couple of the actors that were not that good, they didn't come across that well, ie the girl that played Mollie Ralston, and the chap that played Christopher Wren, the others though were quite good. I enjoyed it so much the first time I saw it some years ago, that I had to come and see it again for the 70th year celebration, but now I see this WOKE business is coming into the theatre, keep it to how people were in those days, and not to make it how some want it to be presented now. The way people dressed and spoke in those days is to do with our history and about Agatha Christie, please don't change it.

Loved our experience in a box which has a restricted view but if you sit yourself well you can see almost everything. The theatre and the play are rightly part of British history and heritage and we loved every bit of our experience. The drinks and programmes are over priced but there is only a pound or two premium applied to them.

When we looked to plan our trip to London, we knew no trip to London was complete without going to a play and perhaps no play was more London than "The Mousetrap". The play has been running for 70 years and nearly 50 of those have been at St. Martin's Theatre. I loved the theater as it is so quaint that you felt a part of the production. Yes, the play is set in such a different time. However, so much of it is still relatable to life today. When we got home, we absolutely loved the movie "See How They Run", which was made all the better having gone to this play. It may not have been the best play I had ever seen, but it was a great play for this trip and a great experience for this theater.

Booked the Mousetrap from US 4 months ahead of time to get the best seats and prices. Dress circle B 7,8 had a wonderful view, isle seat plenty of leg room. Quaint theater, classic decor complements the theme of the Christie play, great acoustics, very nice staff. The Mousetrap is a wonderful AC play, amusing, entertaining and full of surprises and at the end the audience is asked to keep the ending a secret. There is a small gift shop and a bar. Ladies restrooms are down a very steep staircase, clean.

Running since 1962, it’s clear that they must be doing a few things right with this production. It is a fun show to view and full of intrigue and subtleties. We went to a midweek matinee session and it was a full house. Great live entertainment.

Absolutely beautiful- such a historical theatre and you could really feel the history from the decor to the piped music whilst being seated. The Mousetrap performance was brilliant, absolutely engrossing, the acting was brilliant. If you haven’t seen it yet, then you must and don’t forget to get a picture of the performance number. The longest running show, be part of it, you’ll love it !!!
