All About the STOMPers
STOMP started as a percussion group in 1991 originating from Brighton, UK. This seemingly extraordinary way of creating physical theater performance is done by clapping your hands, tapping parts of your body, or other everyday objects to create a beat. It can also be a dance involving a rhythmical stamping step. The beautiful thing about STOMP is that it is a performance involving only body movement and does not make use of words and voices. However, when watching an execution, you will see the message and though without even saying a word, you fully comprehend it.
STOMP is very much another way of expression. Say what you want to say in the form of dancing and physical performance. This made the group famous and ever since then, the group has performed in many theaters. They also were nominated and even won awards along the way. They have worked with and for big companies in the industry and their journey is still far from over.
