Mystery
Ashland - Agatha Christie,
popular writer of mystery
novels, is the author of "The
Mousetrap," the play to be
presented Mother's weekend,
May 7-9, by the SOC Players.
This is one of Miss Christie's
novels which has proved to
be exciting theatre fare. Oth
ers have been the often-produced
"Ten Little Indians,"
and the newer plays "Witness
For the Prosecution," "The
Suider's Web," and "Towards
Zero."
"The Mousetrap" is a dra
matization of "Three Blind
Mice" and tells the story of
a group of strangers stranded
in a boarding house during a
snow storm, one of whom is
a murderer. The suspects in
clude the young couple who
run the house (Jame Boyd,
Medford, and Swan James,
Klamath Falls); a spinster
with a curious background
(Dorothy Lewis, Klamath
Falls); an architect who seems
better equipped to be a chef
(George Brown, Applegate); a
retired army major (William
Black, Ashland); a strange
man who claims his car has
overturned in a drift (James
Cunningham, Malin); and a
fault - finding older - woman
(Dorothy Deckard,' Rogue Riv
er). Another character in the
story is a policeman who ar
rives on skis (William Greg
ory, Medford).
This is the first mystery
presented by the SOC Play
ers in a number of years. The
last was "Kind Lady" pre
sented during the 1955-56 sea
son, according to Dr. Dorothy
Stolp, director.
Two members of the cast
