OPERATION MINCEMEAT: A NEW MUSICAL extends again until 23 September

Following Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical garnering 58 five star reviews, the show has extended its West End run at the Fortune Theatre once again by a further five weeks until 23 September.

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?

The production is directed by Robert Hastie, with choreography by Jenny Arnold, set and costume design by Ben Stones, lighting by Mark Henderson, sound by Mike Walker, and orchestrations and vocal arrangements by Steve Sidwell.

The 2023 Off-West End Best Musical Production Award winning returning cast (Southwark Playhouse/ Riverside Studios), David Cumming, Claire-Marie Hall, Natasha Hodgson, Jak Malone and Zoë Roberts, are joined by: Seán Carey (returning Riverside Studios), Geri Allan, Christian Andrews and Holly Sumpton.

Operation Mincemeat is written and composed by David Cumming, Felix Hagan, Natasha Hodgson and Zoë Roberts, who form SpitLip.
