Worst Show on Broadway

We were very disappointed in the musical, Operation Mincemeat, at the Golden Theater. My husband and I were both looking forward to a fun performance with historical significance and comedic elements that would be entertaining to the audience. Instead, we were completely bored by the script, performances and confused by the lack of comedy in the show. We left a little after the second act in the hopes that it would get better, but it never did. The cross gender casting for the roles was not intended to provide any comedy to the performance. Since this musical was based on a book and eventual movie of the same name, we were aware of the many characters and their gender. Instead, this musical cast women to play most of the male roles and men to play some of the female roles and if they did indeed play male roles, they were wearing full makeup complete with false eyelashes in military uniform. The effect was rather jarring & off putting especially since they didn’t use this type of casting in any comedic way and it was not a drag show. The totality of the cast was sparse and many numbers and jokes fell flat. This musical was one of the worst we have ever seen and we are frequent Broadway theater attendees.

A must see

The theater was packed but they had plenty of ushers to seat you. The musical started promptly at 2. The actors were amazing. We had 2 understudies who definitely held up their end against the stars. The crazy amount of dialogue, staging and timing was spectacular. Their energy was infectious and the script totally unpredictable in a fabulous way. When i read what operation mincemeat was actually about i had doubts i would like it- it was a unbelievable fun, professional and finely crafted show. Loved it.

Amazing show

Absolutely fabulous show. The actors were amazingly skilful instantly turning into extra characters whilst still on stage. Really catchy songs and very well written. The only reason for the one star off was the seating in the theatre. It is exceptionally cramped. Fine when sitting with your own family but if sat next to strangers it is a little too cosy. Suggest leaving a gap where possible for your comfort

Original, funny and moving

This is a very good show with a couple of really great numbers. The actors are wonderful and the singing is amazing. It tells a very interesting story with lots of humor. I enjoyed the performances and the touching moments.
