The show gave common household items a whole new purpose. Making use of brooms, garbage pails, matchbox covers, cigarette lighters, newspapers and plastic bags, Stomp created symphonies and dance routines that undoubtedly astounded its audience. It even caused one to wonder just what the cleaning lady does for amusement when everyone is at class. The show is a combination of music, dance, theater and choreography. It's a movement of bodies, sounds, objects and abstract innovations.
Stomp is like no other play ever performed.
There are no songs, no dialogues, not even a plot. It's a group of rhythmically brilliant performers with exceptionally coordinated bodies and flamboyant personalities. Despite the lack of speech, there is humor and audience participation. Every once in a while that same little man leaps across the back of the stage for no apparent reason. One of the performers often does a clapping routine and encourages the audience to imitate him.
