What's Happening in Chandler, AZ…

STOMP is bringing its driving rhythms to Chandler next month.

The performance, which has had a lengthy run on Broadway, is coming to the Chandler Center this winter. However, it is not the exact same show that first debuted in the early 1990s.

STOMP is a show in which the performers use everyday objects — including hubcaps, Zippo lighters, wooden poles, matchboxes, and garbage cans — as percussive instruments. The troupe of eight has also added new elements to the modern show not seen by longtime fans, such as including restructured segments and the addition of two new routines, including using inner tubes and paint cans.

STOMP had an original Broadway run of 11,000 performances since its debut multiple decades ago. Over the years it has been the subject of numerous other adaptions, including albums, residencies, ad campaigns, TV specials and documentaries. The show was originally envisioned by the dance-percussion performers Steve McNicholas and Luke Cresswell.

Though there are new elements, the 90-minute show still incorporates some of the classic routines that made STOMP so well-known. One favorite that remains part of the performance is the use of brooms to seemingly sweep up the stage, only for the chore to transform into a musical and dance number.

Live performances like these may use flyer printing as a cost-effective promotional tool, and brochure printing to make the programs for audiences.

STOMP is coming to the Chandler Center on February 7 and 8.
