OPERATION MINCEMEAT announces Australian leg of world tour

Live from the casts of Operation Mincemeat in London (West End), New York (Broadway), Chicago (North American leg of the world tour) and Norwich (UK leg of the world tour), during curtain call of each of their respective shows last night, it was announced that the Tony® and Olivier® Award-winning musical Operation Mincemeat is officially heading to Australia as the next leg of its world Tour, set to premiere at Comedy Theatre in Melbourne in September 2027, with further cities to be announced.

Julia Knitel (Broadway’s Ewen Montagu), Madeleine Jackson–Smith (West End’s Ewen Montagu), Holly Sumpton (UK Tour’s Ewen Montagu) and Katie Kleiger (North American Tour’s Ewen Montagu) each gave a speech simultaneously announcing the fifth production on its journey across the globe. The search for the cast will commence in early 2027.

Producer at Avalon, Jon Thoday, said: “It’s incredibly exciting to be invited to produce Operation Mincemeat in Australia and to be able to bring the show to a whole new audience. From its beginnings in a 77-seat London fringe theatre, the show is now playing simultaneously in the West End and on Broadway, with a world tour underway, so far spanning the UK and North America. Australia will be the fifth production of Operation Mincemeat and the next chapter in its extraordinary journey.”
