Following the success of the hit new cast of the Oliver Award-winning Operation Mincemeat, ATG has given the musical, originally slated for an eight-week run at the West End’s Fortune Theatre, an incredible tenth extension through 8 March 2025.
The musical’s writers and composers, David Cumming, Felix Hagan, Natasha Hodgson and Zoë Roberts, said: “We can’t quite fathom the wild journey our show has been on, now reaching a milestone extension number ten - at this rate extensions will be trumping Mincemeat’s hat count, and that’s saying something.”
The announcement comes shortly after the release of the show's Christmas schedule, which, for the first time, features a special New Year’s Eve event, The New Year’s Eve That Never Was. The celebration will involve bottomless drinks, including the iconic Sparkling Sangria, along with cheese and charcuterie boxes, plus other surprises, until 1am.
Operation Mincemeat entered its second year in London on 13 May 2024 with a debut performance of the new cast, Emily Barber, Seán Carey, Chlöe Hart, Christian Andrews and Claire-Marie Hall , with George Jennings and Jonty Peach joining Holly Sumpton and Geri Allen to form the company.
Christmas shows are on-sale now, while extension tickets will be available on general sale on 27 September at 10am here.
