I can't say that I've ever read much of Agatha Christie's work, I'm more inclined toward the convoluted and pulpy prose of Raymond Chandler myself. But, there's no denying the staying power of her play, THE MOUSETRAP, which is still running in Britain since its opening in 1952. It's become an institution, and has influenced countless writers with its mix of quirky characters and deliberately misleading red herrings. The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis is presenting this classic mystery in a splendidly performed production, and it's a perfect holiday treat that engages and entertains.
The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis (The Rep) presents the famous and fun whodunit play The Mousetrap by Agatha Christie and directed by Paul Mason Barnes. This classic mystery will be performed on the Browning Mainstage of the Loretto-Hilton Center for the Performing Arts, 130 Edgar Road (on the campus of Webster University), Webster Groves, today, December 4-29, 2013.

The Huntington Theatre Company world premiere of RYAN LANDRY'S 'M' is a design triumph, but the plot misfires. Karen MacDonald is an anxious menace skulking around the periphery, casting giant shadows, and Larry Coen milks every drop of humor from his multiple roles, but playwright Ryan Landry's story gets snagged between who he is and who he is trying to be.
Four Boston journalists who have each covered Ryan Landry for more than a decade will take part in a panel discussion about the playwright and producer's career, works, and unique form of satire at the Huntington Theatre Company's Humanities Forum on Sunday, April 21 following the 2pm performance of Ryan Landry's "M". Admission is to the Humanities Forum is free with a ticket to any performance of Landry's surreal screwball take on Fritz Lang's iconic film M and are available at huntingtontheatre.org/M and 617 266 0800.
Huntington Theatre Company presents the stage adaptation of Fritz Lang's iconic German film noir M, now playing through April 27, 2013 at the South End / Calderwood Pavilion at the BCA. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the production shots below.
