OPERATION MINCEMEAT - A NEW MUSICAL to release Original London Cast Recording

Sony Music has announced that the full Original London Cast Recording of the critically acclaimed Operation Mincemeat – A New Musical will be released on 12 May.

The album will be released on CD, vinyl, streaming and digital platforms, and is now available to pre-order here. A signed limited edition vinyl format is also available to pre-order exclusively via the official Operation Mincemeat mailing list here.

The album is launched alongside the new track ‘Sail On, Boys’. Fans were invited to vote for their four favourite songs which would be released ahead of the album, with ‘Sail On, Boys’ following the first track ‘God That’s Brilliant’. Two additional fan favourites, ‘All the Ladies’ and ‘Das Übermensch’, will be released soon.

News of the album release arrives as the musical started previewing at the West End’s Fortune Theatre last Friday, ahead of a limited 8-week run beginning officially on 9 May, following thirty-three hugely successful years of The Woman In Black.

Produced by Grammy Award winning and Tony, Emmy, Olivier award nominated Steve Sidwell, the highly anticipated album includes recordings from the 2023 Off-West End award winning cast, David Cumming, Claire-Marie Hall, Natasha Hodgson, Jak Malone and Zoë Roberts, alongside the esteemed in-house band.

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?
