Operation Mincemeat – A New Musical which has just started its West End run at the Fortune Theatre, is set to release an original cast recording in May, Sony Music has announced. The cast recording is due to be dropped on 12 May, following the show’s press nights on 9 and 10 May respectively. The album will be released on digital, streaming, CD and vinyl and is available to pre-order now. Operation Mincemeat is based on the true story of an Allied plot to fool Hitler using a corpse planted with falsified invasion plans to disguise the 1943 Allied invasion of Sicily, and convince the Nazis that the Allies intended to invade Greece and Sardinia instead. The cast recording is produced by Grammy Award winning and Tony and Olivier Award nominated Steve Sidwell and will feature the original West End cast: David Cumming, Claire-Marie Hall, Natasha Hodgson, Jak Malone and Zoë Roberts, alongside an in-house band. Operation Mincemeat is written and composed by Cumming, Hodgson and Roberts, alongside Felix Hagan who form the group SpitLip. The current West End transfer of Operation Mincemeat follows several previous sold-out runs at The New Diorama Theatre in 2019, Southwark Playhouse in 2020, 2021 & 2022 and Riverside Studios in 2022. Alongside the album announcement, a new track from the album, ‘Sail On Boys’ has been released. This is the second of four songs voted on by fans to be released prior to the album launch, with the first track being, ‘God That’s Brilliant’. Two additional fan favourites, ‘All The Ladies’ and ‘Das Übermensch’ will be released soon.

The nominations have just been announced! Congratulations to all the incredible teams nominated for a BAFTA Entertainment Craft Award. Completely thrilled with two nominations this morning for two amazing shows! Concert for Ukraine and Jubilee Party At The Palace.

Following five sold-out development runs at the New Diorama Theatre in 2019 and Southwark Playhouse in 2020, 2021 & 2022, plus an extended Riverside Studios run last summer, the full cast and creative team have been announced for the West End premiere of Operation Mincemeat, beginning performances at the Fortune Theatre on 29 March. 2023 Olivier Award nominated Robert Hastie directs, with choreography by Olivier Award nominated Jenny Arnold, set and costume design by 2023 Olivier Award nominated Ben Stones, lighting by Tony Award, six-time Olivier Award and BAFTA Award winning Mark Henderson, sound by Olivier Award winning Mike Walker, orchestrations and vocal arrangements by Grammy Award winning and Tony, Emmy, Olivier award nominated Steve Sidwell, and casting by Pearson Casting. Operation Mincemeat is written and composed by David Cumming, Felix Hagan, Natasha Hodgson and Zoë Roberts, who form SpitLip. SpitLip said: “We are staggered and amazed at the amount of talent now propping up our sweaty, gnarled bodies. The light from their reflected glory is absolutely blinding and we plan to bathe in it for as long as physically possible. West End, let’s go!” The year is 1943 and we’re losing the war. Luckily, we’re about to gamble all our futures on a stolen corpse. Singin’ in the Rain meets Strangers on a Train, Noel Coward meets Noel Fielding, Operation Mincemeat is 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? To book tickets, please click HERE.
