LT Theatre to perform "The Mousetrap"

The Lyons Township High School Theatre Board proudly presents “The Mousetrap” by Agatha Christie.  The play will be directed by faculty member Ann Dudek, and junior Audrey McGee, of Western Springs, will serve as the assistant director. 

A group of strangers is stranded in a boarding house during a snow storm, one of whom is a murderer. The suspects include the newly married couple who run the house, a spinster with a curious background, an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef, a retired Army major, a strange little man who claims his car has overturned in a drift, and a magistrate who makes life miserable for everyone. Into their midst comes a policeman, traveling on skis. He no sooner arrives, than one of them is killed. Will the murderer be discovered before it’s too late? This is one of Agatha Christie’s longest running plays- over 60 years!

Performances are scheduled for March 13, 14 and 15 at 7pm in the North Campus Reber Center, 100 S.Brainard Ave., LaGrange. Tickets are $10, $5 for children and senior citizens and free with an LTHS student ID. Tickets may be purchased in the box office before the show.  The theatre opens thirty minutes before curtain and the show starts promptly.
