Not the usual British humor
"I wasn't sure what to expect when going in because some British humor is different than ours. Aside from not understanding a few lines because of their accent I absolutely found it very funny. The talent of the group is amazing. It was well done!"

Lesli C from Irving on Jun 22, 2025
Hilarious musical comedy of a WWII secret mission
"I watched a British espionage thriller "The Man Who Never Was" in 1956 and realized the 2021 Netflix film "Operation Mincemeat" was an updated film based on a true story of British Intelligence during WWII. Today, the British have developed a highly hilarious musical comedy which will leave you laughing until the final curtain. Because many of us cannot follow British english easily, it would be helpful to find music and lyrics of the show on the internet before you attend the stage show. Try YouTube. Enjoy!"

A history lesson to music with
"A good musical which tells the story of how The Brits fooled the alleged master race into making a major military mistake during WW2. It was told with good music, great singing and amazing humor. I loved it. I think most of the story is based on true events "

Fact is stranger than fiction

Not the movie - but a very imaginative take on this story.
"If want to see the movie Operation Mincemeat performed as a musical, this is not it. But, it takes the same story and creates a very memorable musical theater experience. The cast members are superb as vocalists, dancers and comedians. And, while the show is generally very lighthearted, they have taken time to acknowledge the seriousness of the subject. "

Completely and utterly amazing!
"I cannot come up with enough superlatives for this show because it was so unexpectedly engaging. Every aspect of the performance was clearly thought out, cleanly executed and enthralling. The unexpected poignancy at times only pulled me deeper into the story. I want to see it again to make sure I didn’t miss anything!"

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?
