About ‘Operation Mincemeat’

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. 

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?
