DETAILED OVERVIEW
Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical - Milton Keynes Theatre - Matinee
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? Twenty two 5-star reviews. The West End has officially opened its gates for Operation Mincemeat.“There are some big, blowsy shows around in the West End, but this little belter is staging its own audacious invasion plan”
Suzi Feay, The Financial Times
“A miraculous musical that tells the entire story in a kind of accelerated farce that is part Mel Brooks, part SIX, part Hamilton with a side order of One Man, Two Guvnors”
Neil Norman, The Daily Mirror
“But whoof! It blew the roof clean off. Hoots and tears welcomed this ingenious, touching musical. Taut lyrics, vintage gags, a wild tale and tunes that followed me out into the night air, in hums and whistles. Perfection… An artisanal masterpiece”
Luke Jones, The Daily Mail
“A buzz louder than a doodlebug surrounds Operation Mincemeat… a kind of genius declares itself”
Dominic Cavendish, The Telegraph
“A masterclass of macabre musical comedy, masterfully performed”
Tim Bano, The Stage
"Madcap and utterly marvellous... This taut and tiny production roars in the face of bloated West End blockbusters. An Absolute triumph”
Stefan Kyriazis, The Sunday Express “A glittering Second World War musical that is funnier than Hamilton… totally brilliant… It has all the subtlety of an M4 Sherman tank crashing its way from one sketch to the next – and is all the better for it…the musical talent on display is exceptional.” Isobel Lewis, The Independent Wednesday 10 June 2026 Pick ups: Trumpington, Royston & Baldock £79 per person Price includes: Stalls Theatre Ticket Return Coach Travel
