Fresh from a sell-out, critically acclaimed initial run at the New Diorama Theatre which saw SpitLip take home the prestigious Stage Debut Award for ‘Best Composer/Lyricist’, the team are back with the latest incarnation of Operation Mincemeat at Southwark Playhouse for a limited run of ten performances.
The year is 1943 and we’re losing the war. Luckily, we’re about to gamble all our futures on a stolen corpse.
Operation Mincemeat is Singin’ in the Rain meets Strangers on a Train, Noel Fielding meets Noel Coward. Join us in discovering 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?
Operation Mincemeat has been nominated for ‘Best Ensemble in a New Production of a Play or Musical’s at the Broadway World Awards 2019 and for five Off West End Awards including Best New Musical, Best Company Ensemble, Best Set Design, Best Musical Director and Best Sound Design.
Commissioned by New Diorama Theatre, co-commissioned The Lowry. Supported by the Rhinebeck Writers Retreat. Additional support from Avalon.
Operation Mincemeat is at Southwark Playhouse 4th – 11th January 2020.
