Operation Mincemeat - A Treat!
"My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the talent that we witnessed during our 1st Operation Mincemeat performance. I say our 1st because we will definitely see this outstanding show again! 5 actors playing multiple characters! Cleverly changing costume, stage props, scenery, and even genders! Knowing that this was based on a true story made it even more intriguing! It was fast-paced fun! Bravo! 👏"

LITERALLY THE BEST THING EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"I cannot stop obsessing over this show. I have dreamt about it. My family is getting annoyed with me. I saw this show with 3 of the cast as understudies (Monty, Jean and the Colonel). I can't imagine how it could be any better. Gerianne Perez absolutely commanded the stage, and was the funniest person i have ever seen onstage. Jeff Kready was the best actor I have ever seen. despite the fact that there was no visual cues to tell you he was playing a woman, he fully embodied the role of this middle aged British woman. Lexi Rabadi has a truly amazing voice, and she portrayed the role of Jean with comedy and skill. Brandon Contras acted as Charles in a way that was the perfect balance between farcical and relatable. Alison Guinn was hilarious, especially as Flemming and Haselden, and her ability to swap between the serious Bevan and the comedic Haselden is an impressive feat. As for the musical, it is my new favorite musical. If you heard deranged cackling from the mezzanine on August 11th, that was me. It has to be one of the funniest things i have seen onstage. I can't think of any piece of media that has made me laugh harder. I learned quite a bit throughout the show, and I also cried quite a bit during 'Dear Bill' and 'Sail on Boys', and i was on the edge of my seat of the whole show. I have had to limit myself to one listen per day, or else I may hyper fixate so badly I explode. However, despite only listening to it once a day, i still have the songs rattling and dancing through my brain day and night (in a good way). Also, I recommend meeting the cast at the stage door if you can, they are genuinely the nicest people. In conclusion, if you have the money for tickets, there is no better investment of your money, and if you don't have money for tickets, forfeit all of your mortal possessions to get tickets. And if you have no mortal possessions, consider selling your soul for tickets. You will die happy."

Hysterical History Lesson
"I saw the very serious movie of Operation Mincemeat, but to see it as a musical comedy is brilliant. All the key points of history are covered but in such a hilarious way. Absolutely brilliant!"

Fun, irreverent, and full of talent.
"Having recently seen the movie, I did not know what to expect from the play. Yes, there is always dark humor in any literary work involving the possible illegal use of dead bodies, but a musical? Come on, this is a serious subject, involving war, death, and extreme danger. I was absolutely blown away by how well it actually worked! The jokes were hilariously funny, and delivered by some top notch comic actors. The music was wonderful and all the players’ voices were amazing. And, to top it off, there were poignant moments that brought me to tears. Special kudos to the cast for keeping up with the myriad roles they play during the course of the show. Talk about quick changes! All in all, it was an amazing experience that I would recommend to anyone. I hope to see it again in a roadshow in my city one day."

Incredible cast!
"Enjoyed the characters and their ability to transition to other characters in an instant. It was fast pace and entertaining throughout. The only issue was the sound from the balcony, was sometimes hard to understand lyrics.
Overall, well worth it! "

Must See More Than Once!
"Five actors animate scores of characters in this relentless, hilarious, and moving account of one of military history's stranger true episodes. The physical comedy is as good as it gets - think the antic energy of American Vaudeville/Monty Python/Benny Hill - balanced by deeply felt emotional moments and virtuosic singing and dance. Tracking the quick changes alone is enough of a reason to see it again, but all of the performances taken individually and as an ensemble represent the best of Broadway. Thoroughly enjoyable, artful, and meaningful. Highly recommend."

Broadway Genius at its best!
"We loved this true story brought to life in the most lively and outrageously funny musical presentation. The small cast was brilliant in their comedic acting and timing with the fluid movement and change of roles and costumes like we loved in the 'Play That Goes Wrong' and 'A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder’. The musical diversity was pure genius and reminded me of the songs we loved so much in 'Hamilton' and 'Something Rotten'. This play has certainly weighed heavily on the greatest theater elements of many hit musicals and brought them together magically with an amazing cast. While I recommend everyone see this play, I wouldn't recommend it for children as the adult themes and storyline may not make sense or keep their attention."

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?
