I Made You A Mixtape at The Cockpit

***** "A vibrant and emotionally engaging experience."

Escape the chaos of 2026 and step into a 90s college dorm party packed with friendship, heartbreak, nostalgia, and non-stop pop-rock bangers.

'I Made You a Mixtape' is a fast-paced, 50-minute movement theatre experience from Response Theatre Company, the UK's first Meisner-based movement theatre company. Set over the course of one unforgettable night, the show follows nine women navigating friendship, first loves, identity, belonging, and the moments that shape who we become.

Funny, heartfelt, energetic, and packed with 90s nostalgia, 'I Made You a Mixtape' transports audiences back to a time before smartphones, social media, and endless notifications. It's a celebration of the friendships that define us, the memories that stay with us, and the music that instantly transports us back to another time.

Blending movement, music, and truthful human connection, the production invites audiences into a dorm room where every song unlocks a memory and every interaction reveals something deeply human. Through a soundtrack of iconic pop-rock anthems and a cast of nine powerhouse performers, the show explores the joy, uncertainty, vulnerability, and excitement of growing up.

Whether you remember making mixtapes, decorating your bedroom walls with posters, staying up too late with friends, or simply miss a time when life felt a little less complicated, 'I Made You a Mixtape' offers a nostalgic escape that feels both familiar and surprisingly relevant.
