More information about Operation Mincemeat
Operation Mincemeat takes you back to the middle of World War II — not exactly fodder for a musical comedy, but that’s what makes this show so ingenious. It’s 1943, and the Allied Forces are hoping to close out the war with a big victory. Fortunately, they’ve got a trick up their sleeve. Well, not up their sleeve, per se, but rather inside the pocket of a stolen corpse.
A farce, a thriller, and an Ian Fleming-style spy caper (with an assist from Mr. Fleming himself) all wrapped into one, Operation Mincemeat tells the wildly improbable and hilarious real story of the covert operation that turned the tide of World War II.
A smash hit in London, the play garnered glowing reviews: The Stage called the show "a brilliant spy thriller, a brilliant comedy, and a brilliant musical all rolled into one.” See what the hype is all about and join a spy mission like no other.
