Thursday the 14th sees the opening of Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap at the Water Street Players. The play is the longest running show of all time, having been produced continuously in London since 1952. It features the most intriguing of characters, from an uninvited guest with an Italian accent (Jimmy Diamondidis, ’18) and a peculiar young architect (Sam Agro, ’18) to a guest-house owner who only wants to forget (Alana Miller, ’18) and many other suspects. Most interestingly, however, is the way the show is to be produced; audience members will be watching from all three sides as the show is “in the round”--another example of the experimental feel the director Giddings has approached the annual spring show with since his arrival. The show is filled with twists and turns and many, many questions; in a murder case, everyone is under suspicion. It should prove to be a delightful evening for everyone… everyone except for the victim, that is.
