Operation Mincemeat is a musical that explores a bizarre yet true World War II event where British Intelligence deceived the Germans by using a dead man's body as a decoy. This whimsical and poignant narrative is spotlighted in the Olivier Award-winning production, celebrated for its unique take on historical events. Meanwhile, other productions like Buena Vista Social Club highlight Cuban musicians' stories, while Denzel Washington takes on the titular role in a new Othello adaptation, showcasing prominent theatrical talent across various layers of storytelling.
"A sneaky compassion lies at the heart of this caper of a show, a deliciously eccentric London import that won the 2024 Olivier Award for best new musical."
"Developed and directed by Saheem Ali, it uses real people and events as a jumping-off point for its storytelling, rooted in the recording sessions of the Grammy-winning album."
