The deal
Tickets from £25 for Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap at St Martin's Theatre, London. No end date — it's still running after more than seven decades.
Why we like it
First, £25 is genuinely decent value for a West End ticket, especially for something this established. Second, if you've somehow avoided knowing the ending for 72 years, you've earned the right to sit through it without someone whispering spoilers. The cast takes this seriously — they actually ask audiences to keep quiet about it. Third, there's a curious charm to seeing a play that's been running longer than most people's marriages. It's not experimental theatre; it's comfort viewing dressed as mystery.
One catch: at this price point, you're likely getting restricted view or upper balcony seats. The theatre's intimate, so even the nosebleeds aren't terrible, but check the seating map before you commit.
