The Lowdown
The plot hinges on a dead body, a suitcase full of forged papers, and the sheer audacity of two British intelligence officers trying to trick Hitler in 1943. It is a bizarre historical footnote transformed into a musical comedy, featuring five actors sprinting through dozens of roles. The staging is tight, the humor is dry, and the production avoids the usual bloated feel of most Broadway spectacles. It turns a grim chapter of the war into a sharp, rapid-fire satire. If you prefer your history with a side of absurdity rather than a lecture, this one holds up. Skip it if you need a sprawling set to stay awake.

Our verdict
A scrappy British import about a real WWII plot to fool the Nazis with a corpse — and it's one of the most purely delightful things on Broadway. Five performers, dozens of roles, a Tony for Jak Malone, and jokes packed so tight you'll miss some while laughing at the last. A few think it runs long; most leave grinning ear to ear. Monty Python energy with a surprising amount of heart.
