The Wizard of Oz at The Woodbrook Players

The Mousetrap at The Woodbrook Players

Reviews November 13, 2017 Amanda N. Gunther

Three blind mice…three blind mice…see how they run…to The Woodbrook Players in the Brown Memorial Woodbrook Presbyterian Church this autumn to see the infamous Agatha Christie play The Mousetrap. Critically acclaimed as The West End’s longest running live theatrical show, The Mousetrap is filled with spine-tingling chills that only Agatha Christie can pen properly for the stage.
