Eras — A Mixtape Through Time
Year 1 Musical Theatre and Dance
21–22 January 2027
The Manchester College presents Eras — A Mixtape Through Time, performed by our Year 1 Musical Theatre and Dance students.
Press play on a journey through five unforgettable decades. From the swinging sixties and disco-filled seventies to the bold sounds of the eighties, the attitude of the nineties, and the pop culture of the noughties, Eras celebrates the music, movement, and fashion that helped define generations.
Each decade brings a new atmosphere, inviting audiences to discover how changing sounds and styles have shaped the way we perform and express ourselves. Colourful costumes, contrasting dance styles and theatrical performances bring this musical timeline to life.
Celebrating both familiar favourites and the excitement of discovering a different era, this production gives our first-year performers the opportunity to share their versatility and developing artistry.
Whether you remember these decades first-hand or know them through your favourite playlists, join us for a nostalgic journey with plenty of fresh energy.

Tickets
There is no on-site box office, so you must book all tickets in advance. We can't sell tickets on the door, and only audience members with a valid ticket can be admitted.
Student tickets
Student tickets are limited to one per transaction. Please show a valid student ID on arrival for each student ticket. If a valid ID cannot be shown, entry may be refused.
Arriving on time
We recommend allowing plenty of time for your journey, as traffic and parking in the city centre can be unpredictable. If you arrive after the performance has started, our team will admit you at a suitable point, at the director's discretion.
Matinee performances
The college building remains open to students and staff during matinee performances, and we follow a strict visitor policy. On arrival, all audience members will be given a visitor lanyard, which must be worn at all times throughout your visit.
Photography and filming
Photography, filming and audio recording are not permitted at any time in the auditorium. Students stage our performances, and the college records some solely for assessment purposes. In line with our safeguarding policies, and to protect the privacy and wellbeing of our students, we ask audience members not to take or share any images or recordings of performers. Front-of-house staff may ask you to put your device away. Thank you for helping us keep our students safe.
Food and drink
Drinks are permitted in the auditorium. Please enjoy food outside the performance space to keep the theatre comfortable and clean for everyone.
Parking
There is no parking on site. We recommend using Parkopedia to find a suitable space, including accessible parking, before you travel.
