What is OPERATION MINCEMEAT about?

The year is 1943 and 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, Noel Coward meets Noel Fielding, OPERATION MINCEMEAT is the fast-paced, hilarious and unbelievable true story of the twisted secret mission that won us World War II. The question is, how did a well-dressed corpse wrong-foot Hitler?

The 2023 Off-West End Best Musical Production Award-winning returning cast are David Cumming, Claire-Marie Hall, Natasha Hodgson, Jak Malone, and Zoë Roberts. They are joined by Seán Carey, Geri Allan, Christian Andrews, and Holly Sumpton.
