Golden Theatre

Winner of the 2025 Tony Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Musical!

How did a dead body, a fake love letter and Ian Fleming come together to wrong-foot Hitler? The year is 1943, and right now England is losing the war. Luckily, they're about to gamble all our futures on a stolen corpse. Singin’ in the Rain meets Strangers on a Train, Operation Mincemeat is the fast-paced, hilarious and unbelievable true story of the twisted secret mission that helped win World War II.
