Overview
History

Operation Mincemeat is a fast-paced, award-winning Broadway musical comedy based on a true World War II espionage operation. With clever storytelling, sharp humor, and a small ensemble playing multiple roles, the show follows the extraordinary British deception plan that helped change the course of the war.

Synopsis

The year is 1943 and right now 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, Operation Mincemeat is the fast-paced, hilarious and unbelievable true story of the twisted secret mission that won us World War II.

Bursting at the seams with the kind of chaos you couldn’t invent, the question is: how did a dead body, a fake love letter, and - of all people - Ian Fleming come together to wrong-foot Hitler?

In 1943, during World War II, British intelligence officers face a critical challenge: how to deceive the German military about the location of the Allied invasion of Europe. Their solution is bold and unconventional—plant false invasion plans on a dead body dressed as a Royal Marine officer and let it wash up where enemy forces will find it.

As the plan unfolds, the intelligence team navigates bureaucratic obstacles, personal doubts, and the absurd logistics of their scheme. Each decision carries enormous risk, as failure could cost thousands of lives on the battlefield.

Through a series of comedic yet tense events, the operation slowly takes shape, relying on creativity, improvisation, and sheer audacity. The story follows both the masterminds behind the plan and the real-world consequences of their actions.

Ultimately, Operation Mincemeat reveals how one of the most unusual strategies in military history played a key role in shaping the outcome of the war.

Venue Info

Fox Theatre Atlanta - Atlanta
Location   660 Peachtree St NE

The Fox Theatre (often marketed as the Fabulous Fox), a former movie palace, is a performing arts venue located at 660 Peachtree Street NE in Midtown Atlanta, Georgia, and is the centerpiece of the Fox Theatre Historic District.

The theater was originally planned as part of a large Shrine Temple as evidenced by its Moorish design. The 4,665-seat auditorium was ultimately developed as a lavish movie theater in the Fox Theatres chain and opened in 1929. It hosts a variety of cultural and artistic events including the Atlanta Ballet, a summer film series, and performances by national touring companies of Broadway shows. The venue also hosts occasional concerts by popular artists.

Originally designed as the Yaarab Shrine Temple, the headquarters for a 5,000-member Shriners organization, the $2.75 million project exceeded the Shriners' budget, so they leased the auditorium to movie mogul William Fox, who was building theaters around the country at the time. The theater opened on December 25, 1929, just two months after the stock market crash. A week later, on New Year's Day, the Shriners inaugurated their new "mosque" in their part of the building, which contained executive offices, a large lounge, a ballroom/banquet hall, kitchen, practice hall, and locker-shower room. Under the terms of the lease, they remained as paying tenants until 1949.

Elvis Presley played at the Fox Theatre in 1956, Bruce Springsteen played it in 1976, 1978 and 1996, Bob Marley and the Wailers performed there on December 12, 1979, in support of his Survival Tour and Pearl Jam played there in 1994. Georgia musicians the Allman Brothers played at the Fox Theatre in 1980, Ray Charles in 1983, James Brown in 1985, R.E.M. in 1989, the B-52's in 1989, the Black Crowes in 1992, Alan Jackson in 1992, Widespread Panic in 1993, Collective Soul in 1996, Outkast in 2001, the Zac Brown Band in 2009 (released on the live album Pass the Jar), and Manchester Orchestra in 2018.
