Hosted by Agatha Christie’s grandson, Mathew Prichard, the show also marked the 25,000th performance of The Mousetrap. All of the proceeds from the night are being
donated to Mousetrap Theatre Projects, the theatre education charity
seed-funded by the play, which has been the world’s longest running
stage production since 1958.
