West End run contines after Broadway run announce,emt

Operation Mincemeat has announced the 11th extension of its West End run, with performances  at the Fortune Theatre,  now set to continue until April.

The news comes just a month after the tenth extension and three weeks after it was announced that it will open  on Broadway, at the Golden Theatre, on March 20.

The musical comedy about a daring Second World War misinformation mission has so far sold more than 300,000 tickets – including more than 140 to one die-hard fan alone.

It began as a tiny production at the 81-seat New Diorama Theatre in London in 2019, then expanded into the Southwark Playhouse and Riverside Studios before premiering in the West End on May 9 last year.

Operation Mincemeat was written and composed by  David Cumming, Felix Hagan, Natasha Hodgson and Zoë Roberts, collectively known as SplitLip.
