Oh, do laugh, deary. The Brits have made the year's funniest musical

Operation Mincemeat, a musical by a fresh young British team, is a hit in London's West End and may head across the Atlantic.

Review: Operation Mincemeat

A corpsing comedy that deserves its cult hit status.

Tim Walker, The New European, 17th May 2023

Review: Operation Mincemeat

It's a story of audacious ingenuity credited with turning the tide of war - yet executed with elements of almost unbelievable farce.

Steve Bennett, Chortle, 15th May 2023

Review: Operation Mincemeat

It makes me punch the proverbial air to see fringe theatre shows that started swimmingly, but in relative obscurity, realise their potential and play to full houses in the West End, complete with queues down the road and sold out signs. Operation Mincemeat is one such success story.

Review: Operation Mincemeat

The cast perform lightning switches of character countless times during the show, sometimes in the same sentence.

Review: Operation Mincemeat

Operation Mincemeat is the closest thing we have to a British Hamilton.

Katerina Partolina Schwartz, Broadway Baby, 11th May 2023

Review: Operation Mincemeat

This is a joy, quirky and full-hearted, musically adroit and fast-moving and witty.

Review: Operation Mincemeat

Operation Mincemeat is the wittiest, most exciting, and most fun show in the West End right now.

Review: Operation Mincemeat

"Brilliant thriller, brilliant comedy, brilliant musical".
