Description:

Actors wanted for Agatha Christie's "The Mousetrap". Please see the details below. About the project: "On a snowy day in 1952, Maureen Lyon is murdered in London. Across the country, Mollie and Giles Ralston prepare to open their new guest house, Monkswell Manor. Their four guests arrive for the night: Metcalf - a retired military major, Mrs. Boyle - a magistrate, Christopher Wren - a young architect, and Miss Casewell - a blunt young woman. An unexpected and mysterious foreigner named Paravacini soon joins the mix. The next morning, the Ralstons receive a phone call saying a police officer is on his way. Upon his arrival, Sergeant Trotter reveals that the police believe the next murder will take place at Monkswell Manor. The police’s primary suspect is an unknown man who was abused, alongside his sister and little brother, under Mrs. Lyon’s foster care as a child. As a result of the abuse, the other boy died. Now, the police believe the surviving brother is looking for revenge. But who is he? As the guests speculate, they discover the phone line has been cut. Mrs. Boyle is discovered to have been the magistrate that sent the children to the foster home. Minutes later, she is found murdered. After Mrs. Boyle’s body is found, suspicions rise and the guests begin to turn on each other, believing another murder is iminent. The pasts of some of the guests are revealed before Trotter finally suggests they all walk through their actions at the time of the murder to test their alibis. After everyone disperses to their positions, Trotter calls Mollie in. He then reveals that he knows Mollie was the schoolteacher of the abused children. He blames her for ignoring a plea for help. Trotter finally reveals himself to be Georgie, the surviving brother. He disguised himself as a policeman to infiltrate the guest house. He is about to kill Mollie when Miss Casewell stops him, revealing that she is his sister Kathy. As Major Metcalf reveals that he is really an undercover policeman, Miss Casewell leads the subdued Georgie away. Additional info: Audition scripts & info are attached.
