The Mousetrap is a mystery play by Agatha Christie. The play is known for having the longest initial run of any play in the world, with 22,800 performances in the course of its (as of August 15, 2007) nearly 55-year run in the West End of London. The play is known for its twist ending, which at the end of every performance the audience is asked not to reveal.
