About the Show

This family-friendly show celebrates the power of percussion and the sheer joy of banging on things.

'Stomp' is an inventive stage show in which the cast uses matchboxes, brooms, garbage cans, Zippo lighters, and more to create energizing beats. The show combines dance, music and theatrical performance for a unique experience. A staple of New York's theater scene since 1994, the show is appropiate for all ages.

The show was created by Luke Cresswell and Steve McNicholas in the UK in 1991 and premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The year it premiered in New York, it won Obie and Drama Desk awards.

'Stomp' became a worldwide phenomenon, appearing on TV shows and even at the Lincoln Memorial at President Clinton's Millennium celebration.
