Review: Operation Mincemeat

It's a story of audacious ingenuity credited with turning the tide of war - yet executed with elements of almost unbelievable farce.

Review: Operation Mincemeat

"Brilliant thriller, brilliant comedy, brilliant musical".

Review: Operation Mincemeat

To be in an audience that roars and screams with laughter and then fall silent as loss in remembered is quite an experience. Just go!

Review: Operation Mincemeat

Genuinely laugh-out-loud funny, with memorable songs and a pitch-perfect cast - this show was born to lead!
