McCarter Theatre Center (Matthews Theater)
91 University Place, Princeton, NJ 08540

An inventive and invigorating stage show that blends dance, music, and theater, the eight performers in STOMP manage to wield energizing beats without a traditional narrative into an electric and unforgettable performance. The show draws sounds from found objects—Zippo lighters, push brooms, wooden poles, hammer handles, garbage cans, inner tubes, matchboxes, even the kitchen sink—for a unique sound that the audience feels as much as it hears. Originally founded in London, STOMP has been a New York City institution since the early 90s (with more than 10,000 performances to date), and brought its distinctive vision all around the world, becoming a rite of passage for fans of dance, music, and the theater.
