THE Page 32 August 10, 2017 “The Mousetrap” “The Mousetrap,” Agatha Christie’s classic mur- der mystery, runs Aug. 10-20 at Dunes Summer Theatre, 288 Shady Oak Drive, Michiana Shores. Leigh Selting, who heads the University of Wyo- ming’s Theatre Arts Program, makes his Dunes di- rectorial debut. “‘The Mousetrap’ is fun and challenging because the staging, the timing of the scenes and characters have to be so precise,” he said in a press release. Celtic Jewelry The play, set in England in the 1950s, centers on a group stranded in a boarding house during a & Irish Gifts snowstorm. When someone is murdered, everyone becomes a suspect, including the couple who run the home, a curious spinster, a retired Army major, a strange little man, a jurist who makes everyone mis- erable and a curious policeman who arrives on skis. The ever-diligent policeman probes the background of everyone present, rattling plenty of skeletons. “The Mousetrap” is the world’s longest-running play, having initially opened in London’s West End 519 Franklin Street in 1952. It recently surpassed more than 25,000 pro- ductions and is, by far, the longest initial run of any Michigan City, IN play in history. Christie, herself, did not expect “The 312-332-9307 Mousetrap” to achieve great success. In her autobi- ography, she reports a conversation with a colleague ballyea.net who stated, “Fourteen months, I am going to give it,” to which Christie replied, “It won’t run that long. Eight months perhaps. Yes, I think eight months.” Dunes Artistic Director Jeffrey Baumgartner said many actors who performed in “I Hate Ham- let” have returned for this show, along with some newcomers. Returning are: Kalika Rose (Chicago) as Mollie; Andy Ricci (Chicago) as Giles; Zoe Sjo- german (Chicago) as Ms. Casewell; and Peter New- man (Los Angeles) as Christopher Wren. New to the Dunes stage are Aaron Michael Davis (Crown Point) as Trotter; Donna Rowland (Michigan City) as Mrs. Boyle; Jeff Gamlin (Chicago) as Metcalf; and Craig Eperdling (Laramie, Wyo.) as Paravicini.
