Operation Mincemeat Tickets On Sale Now!

Did you know that World War Two was quite possibly won by a well-dressed corpse? Join a team of secret agents at the Fortune Theatre for the high-spirited, delightfully eccentric new musical Operation Mincemeat. Boasting 67 five-star reviews and an Olivier Award for Best New Musical, this is one of the most fun nights out in the West End, with a hardworking cast bringing slapstick humour, catchy songs and uplifting stories of friendship and love to the stage.

About Operation Mincemeat - A Plucky British Musical

The year is 1943 and the Allies are losing the war. From the great young minds at MI5 comes a bizarre but brilliant idea to wrongfoot the Nazis: dress a corpse up, handcuff a briefcase of “Top Secret” documents to his arm, and wash him up on the coast of Spain.

Stranger than fiction but 100% true, this madcap plan to fool Hitler is adapted into a new musical by fringe theatre company SplitLip. Playfully dubbed “Singin’ in the Rain meets Strangers on a Train”, the Operation Mincemeat musical features a fast-paced plot, wicked humour and original songs including “God, That’s Brilliant”.

The Best-Reviewed Show in the West End

Operation Mincemeat is the proud owner of 67 five-star reviews - and counting! The Stage declared it a “brilliant spy thriller, a brilliant comedy, and a brilliant musical all rolled into one”, and newspapers across the UK followed suit.

This “irrepressible wartime musical is a West End triumph” (The Guardian), “a delight from start to finish” (Time Out) and a “glorious combination of ingenious, silly and surprisingly moving” (The Telegraph).

Cast and Creative Team

The Operation Mincemeat musical cast consists of five actors who gamely play every role. It has already tickled theatregoers’ funny bones, with sold-out runs at New Diorama Theatre, Southwark Playhouse and Riverside Studios and has extended several times since opening at the Fortune Theatre in 2023.

SplitLip’s team includes David Cumming, Felix Hagan, Natasha Hodgson and Zoë Roberts - and all four co-wrote the book, music and lyrics to this irreverent hit.
