Stomp (performance art)

Stomp is a dynamic performance art that combines rhythmic movement, percussion, and choreography, often using everyday objects like brooms, trash cans, and pipes to create energetic sounds and visuals. Performed by teams of performers, it emphasizes physicality, teamwork, and rhythm, transforming ordinary items into instruments of music and storytelling. Originating in the UK in the early 1990s, Stomp blurs the lines between dance, theater, and percussion, engaging audiences with its innovative use of space and sound. It celebrates creativity, spontaneity, and the universal language of rhythm, making it an accessible and mesmerizing spectacle.
