Very persuasive and enthusiastic performances. No songs. A wonderful theatre -- 100+ years old, quaint, charming and packed with a buzzing audience who helped create a wonderful atmosphere.

I love that you can buy the book there and they stamp it with the show number. The cast was really great. As usual with Agatha Christie, I did not guess the culprit. This is my view from seat E5 in Dress Circle. It was a great view.

I'm an unconditional fan of Agatha Christie and I finally got to see La Souricière. The theater is ideally located, it's an iconic place. The actors were perfect, each in their own role. I'm taking the 70th anniversary book with me ☺️

We had booked tickets in the upper Stalls thinking they had leg room as my partner is 6'4" and when we got there it was very tight and he was clearly uncomfortable. While my partner didn't want to make a fuss, I did say to the usher that we booked specifically for leg room. She went and got the Manager who moved us to much better seats with lots of leg room, given we had just arrived in London that day (we are Australian) it made our trip extra special.

It was just amazing being at West End seeing one of the longest running Broadway shows in the world. Cute little theater. Remind me of New York City.

Everything. Loved the play. Great fan of Agatha Christie and the format. The fact that the play had been going for so long gave it a special aura It was something that was an institution and when we were planning our trip a must see. Actors were brilliant and played to the audience the theatre was a major element of the experience in creating the atmosphere for the play. Agatha Christie, you know what you are going to get, as she works to a tried and tested formula, but you are always surprised by the ending

Everything was great, the performance, the music and last but not least the actors! The madness! I'll just say one thing, we are now also "partners in crime" and "whodunnit!"

You really felt out. The crowd was cheerful and very varied; from vacation outfits to beautifully dressed, but none of that mattered. The crew was fantastic, we were not bored for a moment. What I do not understand is that the audience leaves a huge mess after the performance, that is beyond my comprehension. Please alert the audience that it is normal to take your trash and deposit it in the local trash can, small effort and big fun! Especially for those who have to clean it all up.

The seats were perfect, the decor of this old theater was authentic. Every actor embodied their role superbly. The bar during the interval was perfectly equipped. And we are now also among those who keep the secret.

The staff was so helpful and accommodating. Plus the story was just good and actors did a great job portraying the characters. I think the moment the killer was exposed and the audience actually grasped will stay in my mind forever.

Good without being overwhelmed. Strong acting but the scenery could have been more changeable. Compared to a musical, I find it a lesser experience for the same price.

I knew nothing about the show and due to the skill of the actors expertly enacting the script was unable to identify the mureder until the end, (so many red-herrings). Acting was good plus a set that transported you back to 1950's England. Excellent all-round.

It was the first "play" and the second theatre experience in London for my 9 year old son. He got so immeresed into the story with the first 5 mins into the play that we were amazed. By the break time he was bustling with theories on the "whodunit" and characters. Our stall seats were booked last min, just ealier in the day and turned out to be by best viewing experience of all the 10 or 20 previous experiences. I think it was compact sets and amazing acting. I highly recommend this as a play for fire time viewers. Other theatre experiences like musicals might be a bit over whelming for first timers. This one I felt could be the perfect introduction to some amazing live performance and acting which theartes especially in London are so famous for. I would recommend a quick pre theatre dinner around although you should still find some good uncrowded spots around after the 730 shows finishes. Carry a water or drink!! I am not sure if it was the gripping drama or I was just plain tired to want to keep sipping on some water. It was a packed but cozy theatre in the stalls. And don't miss taking pics with the Mousetrap show counter which we missed as we had to catch dinner after!!
