This review is not for the play (I did another one for this), but for the theatre. It is a beautiful, small and intimate Theatre, and everyone was nice. But the place I choose (one of the most expensives) in the upper dress circle have so little leg space that I couldn't move my legs (and I'm 5ft 9, or... More

St Martins is a pretty little theatre, we sat in the circle and had an excellent view of the play. Seats were comfortable, and it was nice to see many people dressing up to go to this theatre, although I don't think they have a dress code. I didn't see many not making the effort! Drinks and ice-cream overpriced but... More

Great production, but was surprised how small the theatre was. Pity the people in adjacent seats wouldn't stop talking through the first act. More

We bought tickets online, it wasn't too expensive, but they delivery only to UK and I think that you can buy a ticket as you come.

The Mousetrap play itself was excellent as was the cast. However, the theatre was awful. The seats were cramped. My husband could not fit into the seat we had purchased. He would have got DVT. We were given seats downstairs but I had a huge lady in front of me and a cold draught all around me. Seeing the Mousetrap... More

The Mousetrap is a real Agatha Christie play: only a few names to remember, they all have a secret, it's a quite predictable whodunnit (especially if you've read some of her books), but that doesn't matter. We had some cheaper chairs and that wasn't very comfortable for people over 1,70 m. But it was worth a visit! It was a... More
