Stomp

About

Stomp is a globally acclaimed percussion and physical theatre troupe that originated in Brighton, England in 1991. Founded by Steve McNicholas and Luke Cresswell, the show combines the human body, everyday objects and ordinary props to create powerful rhythmic performances without traditional instruments. The troupe’s high‑energy, acrobatic choreography has captivated audiences across three continents, earning them a wide range of awards, including an Olivier Award nomination and several Drama Desk accolades. Stomp’s productions run year‑round, with shows typically lasting around two hours, and the show’s popularity has led to a dedicated touring company that travels to theatres and festival venues worldwide. A performance at Stomp is a blend of rhythmic storytelling, visual spectacle and interactive theatre. The artists use everything from metal buckets to dancers’ shoes as percussion instruments, creating a soundscape that is as surprising as it is engaging. Their work is celebrated for its inventiveness, accessibility and comedic timing, allowing both families and adult audiences to find something to enjoy. Stomp has also produced the IMAX film Pulse: A Stomp Odyssey and has collaborated with a number of large‑scale events, including the 2012 London Olympics closing ceremony. For anyone looking to experience innovative live theatre, Stomp offers an unforgettable, rhythmic journey that turns ordinary objects into extraordinary music. Its worldwide touring schedule and repeated accolades make it a must‑see in modern theatre.
