About the show
I Made You A Mixtape is a movement-led dance theatre piece by Response Theatre Company, performed at Big (Thrust) at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Nine girls, one dorm, zero filter — the piece is set at a nineties college dorm party where performers respond physically to music instead of text. Using popular songs, the work explores friendship, identity, nostalgia and moments of change. Created by the UK's first Meisner-based movement theatre company, the piece uses a unique method merging acting and movement, so no two performances are ever the same. Funny, tender, chaotic and sincere, it offers an emotionally direct experience shaped by music and memory. The show runs for 50 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
Why see this show?
A vivid and emotionally direct dance theatre piece that finds something genuinely moving in the music and memories of a shared nineties night — no two shows are ever the same, which makes it feel alive.
