Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical

A new musical staged at the Victoria Theatre in Halifax, drawn from the Second World War British deception plan known as Operation Mincemeat. The production is a musical theatre show.

Operation Mincemeat: A New Musical takes as its subject the wartime deception plan of 1943, in which British intelligence placed false invasion documents on a body released off the Spanish coast, intending to mislead the Axis powers about the Allied target in the Mediterranean. The show is a musical, so the story is carried through song and dialogue on stage.

Victoria Theatre hosts concerts and shows in Halifax, and this production is presented there.

The piece will suit audiences interested in musical theatre and in the history of the Second World War, as it turns a historical episode into a stage story told through music.
