Clague Playhouse is in search of a 20-30 year old male actor to play Giles in our opening show, Agatha Christie's *The Mousetrap*, directed by Ron Newell. *The Story: *After a local woman is murdered, the guests and staff at Monkswell Manor find themselves stranded during a snowstorm. It soon becomes clear that the killer is among them, and the seven strangers grow increasingly suspicious of one another. A police detective, arriving on skis, interrogates the suspects: the newlyweds running 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 jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. When a second murder takes place, tensions and fears escalate. This record-breaking murder mystery features a brilliant surprise finish from Dame Agatha Christie, the foremost mystery writer of her time. *The Character: *GILES RALSTON – The more cautious proprietor of Monkswell Manor. Supportive of his wife, but less thrilled to run a guesthouse. A traditional gentleman who’s quick to judge his guests. This production is in rehearsal now, and performances are on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 7:30PM ande Sundays at 2PM, 9/12/2025 - 10/5/2025.
