Operation Mincemeat

Neil Gooding Productions is thrilled to be a co-producer under Lang Entertainment Group on Operation Mincemeat on Broadway

Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical is the 2024 Olivier Award-winning Best New Musical. It's London's biggest hit with 74 Five-Star reviews making it "the best-reviewed show in West End history"

The year is 1943 and right now 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, Operation Mincemeat is the fast-paced, hilarious and unbelievable true story of the twisted secret mission that won us World War II.

Bursting at the seams with the kind of chaos you couldn't invent, the question is: how did a dead body, a fake love letter, and - of all people - Ian Fleming come together to wrong-foot Hitler?

REVIEWS

"One of the season's most exhilarating new musicals. In the spirit of 'Austin Powers,' 'Monty Python' and the high-concept farce of Alan Ayckbourn, Operation Mincemeat is both unabashedly goofy and exceptionally smart." THE WASHINGTON POST

"Now this yarn is a self-aware and droll Broadway musical, a five-character London hit hoping that its very British signature blend of Monty Python and 'Goon Show'-like humor, 'Billy Elliot'-like music, 'Hamilton'-like rhythms and a hip, post-modern staging will tickle the American fancy." - CHICAGO TRIBUNE

"A laugh-out-loud musical that's part spy thriller, part wartime spoof and endlessly entertaining." - ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

"Help! I've been to see Operation Mincemeat 12 times...There are very few works of art that are successfully coded to appeal to conservative and liberal sensibilities, but this is...Both will appreciate the very British theme of fairness, along with the musical's surprisingly deep heart." - THE TIMES
