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?
Operation Mincemeat originally appeared on London stages at the New Diorama Theatre in 2019, before going on to have runs at the Southwark Playhouse and Riverside Studios ahead of taking up a more permanent residence in the West End.
The show was created by Cumming, Felix Hagan, Hodgson, and Roberts. It is directed by Robert Hastie, with choreography by Jenny Arnold. Meanwhile, the creative team is also comprised of: set and costume designer Ben Stones, lighting designer Mark Henderson, and sound designer Mike Walker. Orchestrations and vocal arrangements are by Steve Sidwell, with musical direction by Joe Bunker.
