Operation Mincemeat has a new cast (one original performer remains) and rumor has it they are extremely talented. 

Fantastic news. Thanks for posting.

Have never seen a performance there. Any seats to avoid? 

Looks like a new Mincemeat cast is starting. Does anyone  know these names?

On a slightly related topic, does anyone know how long the original cast plans to stick with the show on the West End?

Apologize for highjacking my own thread, but curious about your comment above. I’m seeing Operation Mincemeat in September. Do you think that some Americans may find the humor “too British”? Or is it something else? Would love to hear your thoughts.

This West End production looks extremely interesting. There was a bit of buzz that it might be coming to Broadway. Anyone hearing rumors they care to share? Thanks. 

Attended a Saturday evening performance a few weeks ago. Jeremy and Michael could not have been nicer or more accommodating. There was a large crowd waiting, but was well-behaved. No pushing. No shoving. Both Jeremy and Michael made sure everyone got their Playbill signed. They also talked quite a bit with the crowd. Very patient and gracious. 

Think you already have a solid list. I’ll be in London in September and already have tickets for Operation Mincemeat. No idea if any of the current cast will still be performing, but if not, I’m sure they’ll find some fantastic replacements.

I echo this. Saw Enemy last weekend. Lots of people along the gates, but no pushing or shoving. Everyone behaved. Jeremy and Michael were both great. Very patient and gracious. Made sure everyone got an autograph. 

Caught a few video clips of the actors taking their bows. Hard to tell, but looks like the stage design is centered…nothing much to the far left or right. 

Thanks for the responses. For Appropriate, I sat against the wall in Row G in Orchestra Right (OR). Missed a bit of the action (hence the partial view), but seemed like the actors were facing OR more. Guess we’ll find out more after tonight.

MOTHER PLAY opens with previews starting tonight. Would greatly appreciate it if anyone attending can share their thoughts on seating—specifically Orchestra Left vs Orchestra Right. 
Thank you in advance. 

Man, so many miserable cranks here. Don’t like Ben, don’t go. Did he steal your boyfriends? So much venom. SMH

The perpetually and easily offended are at it again. Must be exhausting to be that annoying.

Wow. I attended last night’s performance and Liev appeared fine. No issues at all. Enjoyed the play quite a bit. 

Has Amy Ryan started rehearsals yet? 

I’m a bit confused (not a rare occurrence). The synopsis on Mother Play mentions a mother overseeing the move of her two teenage children into an apartment.” But those teens are being played by Jim Parsons and Celia Keenan-Bolger, who are 50 and 46 respectively. So, are they actually portraying teenagers? Are they reflecting back on events that occurred many years ago? Or something else?
