Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical has extended its West End run for the eighth time through 16th November 2024. Operation Mincemeatfollows thirty-three hugely successful years of The Woman In Black at the Fortune Theatre.
Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical is based on the extraordinary true story during World War II, the elaborate scheme is largely attributed to Ewen Montagu and Charles Cholmondeley.
Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical has extended its West End run for the seventh time until 22 September 2024.
Following dedicated fans of Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical successfully uncovering the missing pieces of MI5 secretary Hester May Murray Leggatt's life, a plaque in her honour is set to be unveiled at the Fortune Theatre on 11 December, six months after the show’s West End premiere.
In 1943, MI5 secretary Hester Leggatt played a vital role in an operation to fool the Nazis, by writing fake love letters to be found on a corpse. Hester's own story remained a mystery until Operation Mincemeat inspired fans, known as mincefluencers, to #FindHester. Erin Edwards wrote to MI5, asking for confirmation that Hester had worked in the wartime security services. Here she tells BroadwayWorld about her own research and eventually receiving written confirmation from MI5 about Hester.
Recently, I had the chance to speak with Jak Malone of Operation Mincemeat who plays several characters including Hester Leggett and Bernard Spilsbury. We discussed what it's been like being working with actors he has been a fan of, how he has developed his characters, and even what it has been like to see the #FindHester fan project on Twitter!
Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical has extended booking into 2024, joining hits including Hamilton, Six, Book of Mormon, Cabaret and Les Misérables, as it continues its run at the West End’s Fortune Theatre until 24 February. This is the show’s fourth extension.
Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical ‘the best musical in decades - a Hamilton and Book of Mormon love child’ garnering fifty-eight five star reviews, has extended its West End run again by a further five weeks until 23 September.
Operation Mincemeat is a victory for the underdog, in themes as well as in reality. Relatable characters with vibrant backgrounds, regardless of their size, go on a Frankensteinian journey to divert the Nazi battalion to Sardinia. From songs about wanting to be a maggot to heart-wrenching glimpses into tragic love stories, it’s as eclectic as it is entertaining. Rhythmic pop music, a contemporary musical theatre sound, the odd rap segue, and a tune that would feel at home at Berghain for good measure (“Das Übermensch”) are the foundation of this life-affirming, riotous history lesson.
Following three weeks of sold-out previews, Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical, has extended its West End premiere run by six weeks until 19th August. The show follows thirty-three hugely successful years of The Woman In Black at the Fortune Theatre.
The full Original London Cast Recording of the critically acclaimed Operation Mincemeat – A New Musical will be released on Friday, 12th May 2023. Listen to the first track from the album here!
