"We missed this in the West End so were thrilled to be able to see it during our trip to New York. It delivered everything we expected and so much more. We expected it to be funny and it was - really funny, clever - very clever. Superbly staged and acted by all members of the cast. We didn't expect it to be so moving - I sobbed at the end. Truly a wonderful show - not to be missed. "

Clever and timeless
"Making the most of a wacky (yet true)anecdote from WWII, these 5 performers prove to have the comic, singing and acting chops to bring an audience to tears, cheers and a standing ovation, with inimitable timing and first rate performances. The writing is brilliant, the actors are fabulous and the music toe-tappingly good. Perfect way to spend a highly enjoyable afternoon or evening!"

A clever, hilarious, delightful romp!
"We both read the book and saw the movie, thoroughly enjoying both. We couldn't imagine how this serious story could be turned into a musical comedy. Being avid theatre goers we couldn't resist and hoped for the best.
We were absolutely blown away; it was extremely clever, the actors superb, the staging over the top; we simply couldn't stop laughing, which wasn't always easy as our mouths were frequently open in amazement.
This was Broadway at its best."

Do NOT miss Operation Mincemeat! It is the best musical out there!
"This show had EVERYTHING! An amazingly versatile cast that could sing, dance, act, and change characters in a flash. The numbers were a feast for the ears and eyes. The quick-witted, British humor was balanced with soft, sentimental moments that gave such texture to the show. I attend several shows a year, and although I appreciate and enjoy them all, Operation Mincemeat is my new favorite. I think the best compliment I can give the show is that right after the applause ended and we got up from our seats, we were all wondering how soon we would be coming back to see it again. "

Packed with laughter but also emotion

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?
