St Martin's Theatre
The theatre was designed as a companion to the adjacent Ambassadors Theatre, although these two theatres are actually very different. In contrast to the decorative plasterwork seen in the Ambassadors Theatre auditorium, St Martins Theatre has a natural polished wood interior, which is unique in the West End. Productions here include the 1938 premiere of the popular J B Priestly play When We Are Married. In 1945 Edward Percy’s murder story The Shop At Sly Corner which enjoyed a run of 863 performances.
During the 1970s Anthony Shaffer’s thriller Sleuth had a run of 3 years starting. Needing an uplift the theatre was renovated in 1961. The theatre is undoubtedly best known for its current production of Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap which recently celebrated its 60th Anniversary. The play originally opened at the Ambassadors Theatre on 25th November, 1952 before transferring to St Martin’s Theatre.
