It’s 1943, and the Allied Forces are on the ropes. Luckily, they’ve got a trick up their sleeve. Well, not up their sleeve, per se, but rather inside the pocket of a stolen corpse. Equal parts farce, thriller, and Ian Fleming-style spy caper (with an assist from Mr. Fleming himself), Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical tells the wildly improbable and hilarious true story of the covert operation that turned the tide of WWII.
"If you like Mel Brooks + Hamilton + Two Guvnors, you’ll love Operation: Mincemeat. It’s a great musical comedy with 5 actors playing 20+ characters with incredible costume change and comedic timing. Highly recommend this show!"

Humor can be found in unexpected places.
"The versatility and sharp performance of five actors in so many parts was truly amazing! No wonder it won the Olivier! I can find no fault in a presentation that depicted a true war story in a humorous way and kept the audience engaged at all times. Bravo!"

Packed with laughter but also emotion
"The small cast manages to play many characters, each fully realized. And the humour is fast and brilliant. Yet the situation is deadly serious and the story is true. I laughed a lot except when I had a lump in my throat. I want to see it again!"

Original and Riveting!
"It is so refreshing to see a new and witty musical make it through the noise nowadays. A wickedly talented (small) cast expertly tells a serious story in the most funny way. At the same time, they pay homage and honor when needed. A hoot and a holler!"

Instantly in my Top 5
"What an amazing show. The story was great, as was the music, particularly the Letter to Bill song. Very funny cast, even if the topic was serious. Amazed that only 5 people are in this show, they move from character to character so fluidly. This is one I will see again. Truly superb!"

Hilarious!
"Loved the multiple parts the actors played with their quick transformations. The very fast-spoken lyrics were difficult to understand at times (think Hamilton) so it was sometimes hard to follow the fast-moving story. All in all a very entertaining and funny show."

The British are coming!
"Every performer, in all their multiple characters, was fantastic. Men playing female roles; women playing male roles....I was able to suspend disbelief and go along for the ride because they were all so damn good. The quick costume/character changes were fantastic and well done. "Dear Bill" is so well written and performed. Bravo to everyone involved."
