Since 1952, Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap has captivated the world with silent cues, shifting shadows and the best kept secret in theatre history. Now, the record-breaking classic embarks on its 75th Anniversary Tour across the UK and Ireland.

The Mousetrap

A shocking murder rattles London. Far from the chaos. A remote country guesthouse welcomes seven strangers seeking refuge. But when a police sergeant battles though a deadly snowstorm with a warning no one expects, it becomes clear the threat is already within their walls.

The cleverest murder mystery of British Theatre
- The Telegraph
A truly entertaining classic thriller
- The Sunday Times
Deservedly a classic among murder thrillers
- The Observer

Every whisper hides a clue. Every story masks a lie. And as suspicion tightens its grip, one question chills the room: Who among them is capable of murder?

Step inside the Sunderland Empire, and solve the greatest murder mystery that has kept the world guessing for generations.

THE MANOR AWAITS.

Vesta Tilley laid the foundation stone of what is now the Sunderland Empire on 29 September 1906 and took to the stage on 1 July 1907 to officially declare the theatre open. Masterminded by two of the contemporary heads of British theatre, Edward Moss and Oswald Stoll, the Sunderland Empire Theatre has undergone many changes since it opened but remains the North East’s premier entertainment venue.
