📍 Venue Description: St Martins Theatre is one of the most charming and historic venues in the West End.

### The History of St Martins Theatre
The St Martins Theatre first opened its doors in 1916, having been designed by celebrated theatre architect W.G.R. Sprague. Its debut was delayed due to World War I, but it quickly became a fixture of London’s cultural scene. Over the decades, the venue welcomed stars such as Basil Rathbone and Henry Daniell, and was helmed for over seventy years by the Meyer family, including the theatre’s founder Bertie Meyer.
In 1974, The Mousetrap moved to the St Martins Theatre from the neighbouring Ambassadors Theatre, cementing the venue’s place in theatrical history. The show’s enduring success contributed to the St Martins Theatre being Grade II listed in 1973 — a testament to its architectural and cultural importance in the West End.
