The Mousetrap made its world premiere on October 6, 1952 at the Theatre Royal, Nottingham. After a brief tour, it opened in London’s West End at the Ambassadors Theatre on November 25. Directed by Peter Cotes, the play ran at the Ambassador until March 23, 1974, when it immediately transferred to the larger St Martin’s Theatre, next door, where it continues to this day. Having run consistently from 1952 to the present, The Mousetrap is the world’s longest-running play.
