Starring Todd Carty (EastEnders, The Bill) and Gwyneth Strong (Only Fools and Horses, EastEnders).

We attended the packed out Press Night which saw the Derngate theatre filled with anticipation around this much loved play.

The entire cast were brilliant and this was matched with a very impressive set that made you feel that you were with them at the Guesthouse. This storyline keep's you hooked for the entire performance.

When the full cast return to the stage for the final curtain, they ask the audience to keep the "Who Done It" a secret! Is this Theatre's best kept secret?

The Mousetrap is showing at Northampton's Royal & Derngate Theatre until Saturday 17th February, we highly recommend a visit.
