All Fired Up: an 80’s Mixtape Musical

Assembly

What a fantastic way to brighten our afternoon :this show is packed with things we love: neon, 80s music, dancing, joy and connection..

We meet Tammy, whose life is in a bit of a spin : possibly perimenopausal, definitely overwhelmed, and struggling to find her spark. But when a dusty old mixtape, her vibrant daughter, and the power of 80s nostalgia collide, Tammy is reminded of everything she once loved, and why dancing like nobody’s watching is sometimes the best therapy. Real life mother and daughter duo are outstanding in this show, which surprised us with its heart, warmth and infectious energy. A little audience participation may be required, and you can choose to invest in this as much or as little as you want ! The live band and DJ Neon were a highlight, making this extra immersive and vibrant !

Watching this with my own daughter, knowing that music is one of our shared passions, only made this colourful production more enjoyable… find somebody you wanna dance with and head along : you won’t regret it!

Our mini-reviewer said : ‘I really liked how you they involved the audience at the beginning as it got you pumped for the show, and I liked the music choice too.’
