Operation Mincemeat is the 2024 Olivier Award-winning Best New Musical. It’s London's biggest hit with 88 Five-Star reviews, making it the best-reviewed show in West End history. Now also a Tony Award®-winning musical on Broadway! 
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? 
 
“Laughing so hard I could barely breathe is not what I expected for a musical about a World War II top-secret plan" Thea Jacobs, The Sun 
“Pure theatrical serotonin” Hugh Montgomery, Metro 
“Part Mel Brooks, part SIX, part Hamilton with a side order of One Man, Two Guvnors” Neil Norman, The Daily Mirror 
“Before curtain I talked to a fan seeing this for the seventh time. I wondered why anyone would see the same show seven times. Now I know” Neil Armstrong, Mail On Sunday 

“A Pythonesque wartime romp” Daily Telegraph

“Irrepressible wartime musical is a West End triumph” Guardian
