Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical at Golden Theatre

Operation Mincemeat on Broadway

Operation Mincemeat is the Olivier Award winner for Best New Musical 2024 and the 2025 Tony Award winner for Best Featured Actor in a Musical, for Jak Malone, and was named the number one Broadway show of 2025 by Entertainment Weekly. It plays at the Golden Theatre.

The year is 1943 and the war is being lost, so a small team gambles everything on a stolen corpse. Bursting with the kind of chaos you could not invent, it asks how a dead body, a fake love letter and, of all people, Ian Fleming came together to wrong-foot Hitler. The musical retells the real wartime deception with wit and momentum.

What to Expect

Expect a fast, funny and inventive musical comedy built around a true Second World War story, performed by an ensemble cast at the Golden Theatre. The New York Times Magazine called it the most rewarding theatrical experience its critic had ever had, and The Washington Post named it the year's funniest musical.
