OPERATION MINCEMEAT Extends for a Second Time!

New to Broadway this season, OPERATION MINCEMEAT announces a second extension of their limited run.

Initially only a 16-week engagement at the Golden Theatre, the production announced after beginning previews on February 15 they would extend another 4 weeks. Ahead of their opening night this week on March 20, it has been announced they will extend once again, through August 18.

Set in 1943, OPERATION MINCEMEAT explores the true story of a secret military operation meant to turn the tide of the war. With the Allies losing, the British military develop an idea: to use the well-dressed corpse of a homeless man to feed Hitler and his advisors incorrect information.

The musical is written and composed by comedy group SpitLip, comprised of David Cumming, Felix Hagan, Natasha Hodgson, and Zoë Roberts. Directed by Robert Hastie and choreographed by Jenny Arnold, the original Broadway cast includes Cumming, Claire-Marie Hall, Hodgson, Olivier winner Jak Malone, and Roberts.

The show opened in London’s West End in 2023, going on to win two 2024 Olivier Awards, including Best New Musical.
