ABOUT THE SHOW
The Valley Players present Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap Fridays-Sundays, Oct. 4-20, at the Valley Players Theater, 4254 Main Street (Rt. 100), Waitsfield, VT. Part murder mystery and part psychological thriller, the play is brimming with intrigue, sophisticated humor and surprising twists.
After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. A police detective (Ray Merrill, ) arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running the house (Sarah McDougal, Warren, and Wes Olds, Graniteville); a spinster with a curious background (Karin Stevenson, Essex); an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef (Paul Cavaliere, Montpelier); a retired Army major (Brent Adams, Warren); a strange man who claims his car has overturned in a drift (Aric Brown, Middlesex); and a former judge who makes life miserable for everyone (Marci Robinson, Warren). It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate.
The play is directed by Ruth Ann Pattee, Fayston, with assistance from Stage Manager Joanne Puente, Worchester. Set design is also by Pattee, with Doug Bergstein, Waitsfield, as set build crew chief. The lighting design is by Jasper Mayone, Waitsfield, with assistance from Irene Halibozek, Williston.
