The Mousetrap with Georgina Fairbanks

In this episode, we’re joined by rising stage and screen actor Georgina Fairbanks to discuss stepping into the legendary West End production of The Mousetrap at St Martin's Theatre. Georgina opens up about playing Mollie Ralston in the world’s longest-running play, balancing comedy and tension inside Agatha Christie’s iconic mystery, and why audiences still can’t resist trying to solve the murder over 70 years later.We also discuss her recent theatre work as Irene in Wilko at Southwark Playhouse. During the conversation, Georgina reflects on joining a theatrical institution under director Ola Ince, the pressure and excitement of entering such an iconic production, and the joy of hearing audience theories night after night.
