An impressive group of actors!
"I wasn’t sure what to expect but it was a well-told and fun musical about an historical event. The 5 actors/actresses wore many hats (pun intended) and were hilarious in how they interpreted each character and personality. Their facial expressions and body movement told as much of the story as their lyrics. It was so well done. I laughed. I cried. It was simply fantastic!"

The cast will blow your mind
"I was a little trepidatious about the show. It’s a weird premise for a musical. Then there is the small stage and the miniscule cast but it was amazing. The cast, playing multiple roles with the barest minimum of costuming clues, absolutely sells it. Every one of them has such range. Special shout-out to Amanda Jill Robinson, who is hilarious, and also to Sam Hartley who played Hester Leggatt with such heart-breaking delicacy."

Amazing production!!
"What's not to like? The 5 actors were phenomenal. The costume and character changes happened at lighting speed. My favorite was the hip hop performance dressed as SS military. Was SOOOOOO funny!! My husband and I couldn't decide who our favorite characters were? They were all so wonderful. I would love to know how they are able to keep up the energy for 2+hours of super active dance and singing performances? The subtle jokes and remarks, the interaction with the audience. I smiled the entire show. "

Fabulous voices and story telling. One incredibly beautiful and emotional song....so many high energy numbers and a spectacular ending. Fully recommend! Bravo!"

If you miss Mincemeat you are missing out
"Operation Mincemeat was highly recommended by a friend who lives in NYC and he is always right on. My wife and I found Mincemeat to be extremely entertaining and well done. The vocals by all the performers were fantastic and none of them were short of amazing. The choreography and costume changes were truly magical ; we were amazed by how fast the performers were able to change costumes. The story line was so intriguing , especially knowing that it is based on true events. It it difficult to comprehend how good the actors, producers, directors, orchestra and others who are responsible for the play, Mincemeat really are. These people are some the hardest working people in the world and the production of Mincemeat surely reflects their efforts. My wife and I will be seeing Mincemeat again. Oh and whomever the usher was in left orchestra, thank you for giving my wife a seat pillow!"

Amazing Talented Actors

Fast paced fun touching on every emotion!
"The musical was amazing! Explaining a serious historical event with unorthodox humor and highlighting the personalities (with all too familiar human strengths and failings) that made up MI5. The creativity, intelligence and talent of the superb actors made this one of the best broadway shows I’ve ever seen! So much heart and humor… I’m still smiling and it’s been 24 hours since I saw this masterpiece 😊"

Fantastic in every way but my seat!!
"I loved everything about this show—the story, the cast, the choreography, the music, the sets, the costumes, the variety of musical numbers… It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me leap to my feet at the curtain call! It was much more than I expected and I would highly recommend it. But don’t get seat R 119 or you will have a lot of trouble seeing around the head of the person in front of you. (The rest of the row was fine)"

Prepare for a thrill ride
"Operation Mincemeat is the most exciting, energetic, good-time, thrill of a musical I've seen in decades. I sat on the edge of my seat with a stupid grin on my face for the entire show -- that is, when I wasn't stifling a sob at a certain heartbreaking moment. The hugely talented, insanely energetic, tightly collaborative cast earned every millisecond of the instant standing ovation. I'd love to see it again."

A Big Breath of Fresh Air
"Operation Mincemeat was truly a breath of fresh air in today’s toxic environment. It was a rare combination of slap-stick humor, touching musical numbers (Dear Bill), and brilliant staging and direction….all performed by five wonderful actors who truly loved performing their roles. Sitting in the first row, we felt like we were part of the performance. How many shows both made my face break from smiling so much as well as shedding a few tears! Bravo!"

About
Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical
The year is 1943 and right now we’re losing the war. Luckily, we’re about to gamble all our futures on a stolen corpse.
Singin’ in the Rain meets Strangers on a Train, Operation Mincemeat is the fast-paced, hilarious and unbelievable true story of the twisted secret mission that won us World War II.
Bursting at the seams with the kind of chaos you couldn’t invent, the question is: how did a dead body, a fake love letter, and - of all people - Ian Fleming come together to wrong-foot Hitler?
