When a police sergeant arrives\, the guests discover – to their horror – that a killer is in their midst. One by one\, the suspicious characters reveal their sordid pasts. Which one is the murderer? Who will be their next victim? And can you solve this world-famous mystery for yourself?\n\n\nFor 70 years\, Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap has kept millions of people\, from every corner of the globe\, on the edge of their seats\, and it continues to be a sell-out hit of London theatre.”\n\n  \nCast of Characters: \nMollie Ralston (20s-30s) – A kind\, caring young woman who inherited Monkswell Manor from her Aunt. She is savvy\, takes pride in what she does\, and is brand new to hosting alongside her husband\, Giles. They have been married for one year\, and are very much in love. \n  \nGiles Ralston (20s-30s) – A former Navyman\, he is Mollie’s husband and first-time host of the Manor. He has a tendency of being pessimistic and isn’t always well-received by others\, but he means well and has a good heart. He has been married to Mollie for one year\, and they are very much in love. \n  \nChristopher Wren (20s-30s) – An eccentric\, unapologetic\, somewhat neurotic young man who often leaves people feeling unsettled\, irritated\, or wondering what to think of him. Despite this\, he gains Mollie’s trust quite quickly and they form a friendship. He is the first guest to arrive at the Manor. \n  \nMrs. Boyle (40+) – A critic; she is impossible to please and unanimously disliked. She is a former Magistrate and always speaks her mind\, even though nobody asks; everything that’s wrong with the world is at the fault of others and never herself. She is the second guest to arrive at Monkswell Manor. \n  \nMajor Metcalf (40+) – A kind\, well-mannered man who is militant in nature and brings an inherent feeling of safety and security about him. He is the third guest to arrive at the manor. \n  \nMiss Casewell (20s-30s) – A rather standoffish woman who embodies masculine qualities that are ahead of her time. She is mysterious and alludes to a troubling past\, though she has no intention of elaborating on it. She is the fourth guest to arrive at the manor. \n  \nMr. Paravicini (40+) – A mysterious man who arrives unexpectedly during the middle of a snowstorm. He is pleasant enough\, but there is an uneasiness to him. Nobody knows a thing about him\, and he seems to like it that way. He is confident\, speaks with an foreign accent\, and wears evident makeup to make himself appear of a different age – old or young\, it’s hard to tell. The fifth guest to arrive at the Manor. \n  \nDetective Sergeant Trotter (20s-30s) – The final guest to arrive at the Manor. Jaunty and a straight-shooter\, he is sent by the Berkshire Police to investigate the murder which took place on the previous day in London. He informs the guests that the murderer may very well be among them. \n  \nAll roles are available. No prior theatrical or ACT experience is required.\nRoles are open to diverse & gender-inclusive casting.  Our casting seeks to be as inclusive as possible and we invite gender nonconforming\, genderqueer\, transgender and nonbinary actors to select the roles they most identify with. \nAge ranges are suggestions\, please audition for any role you would like. \n  \nQuestions can be directed to the ACT Office. \nPhone: 814-943-4357 \nEmail: act@altoonacommunitytheatre.com
