Stomp
Stomp is a renowned non-traditional dance group that uses the body and ordinary objects to create a percussive physical theatre performance.
They developed from the London Records band The Yes/No People. Since becoming Stomp, they have released music and starred in television commercials. HBO also produced the DVD Stomp Out Loud.
They appeared on Space Ghost Coast to Coast. The New York cast of Stomp was also featured in the pilot episode of Cyberchase. Early in their career, they performed the theme tune for Blue Peter.
Stomp was parodied on an episode of Saturday Night Live through the false name of "Clappin'".
STOMP, a unique combination of percussion, movement and visual comedy, was created in Brighton, UK, in the summer of 1991. It was the result of ten year collaboration between its creators.
They first worked together in 1981, as members of the street band Pookiesnackenburger and the theatre group, Cliff Hanger. Together, these groups presented a series of street comedy musicals at the Edinburgh Festival throughout the early '80s. Pookiesnackenburger also produced the highly acclaimed "Bins" commercial for Heineken Lager.
Luke and Steve formed Yes/No People in 1986, but soon began to branch out into other areas. Together they went on to create and perform the internationally award-winning theme to Channel Four's late night music program "Wired," the opening sequence to Kevin Godley's global project, "One World One Voice," and an eight minute "percussive movie" for Bette Midler's "Mondo Beyondo." A single, "The Adventures of Mr. Johnson," was released in 1988.
Between 1987 and 1990, Luke staged, as artistic and musical director, four large scale outdoor events including "Beat the Clyde," The largest of these events, the "Heineken Hove Lagoon Show," featuring the Brighton Festival Chorus and a full orchestral string section.
In 1991 Yes/No People produced and directed a series of eight percussive video shorts for inclusion in the UK ITV network environmental issues program "A Beetle Called Derek."
They also went on to produce, finance and direct STOMP which previewed at London's Bloomsbury Theatre and premiered at the Assembly Rooms in Edinburgh, where it became the Guardian's "Critic's Choice" and won the Daily Express "Best of the Fringe" award.
The following year STOMP toured Australia, where it won the Adelaide "Best of the Fringe" award, and also enjoyed successful runs at the Montreal Comedy Festival, London's Royal Court Theatre and at the Barcelona Olympic, Galway, Aarhus and Belfast Festivals. Both the Brighton and the Newcastle Dance Umbrella Festivals commissioned a specially extended version of STOMP. This led to both the "Most Outstanding Contribution to the Festival" and the "Most Innovative Work" awards in Brighton.
1992 also saw more award winning commercials for JACCS credit card and Apples, which won the Silver Lion at the Cannes Festival. Their advertising work continued with 1993's "Ice Pick" commercial for Coca-Cola.
1993 saw a return to Melbourne, Australia with a limited run of a specially created large scale show using 30 extra local performers, and performances.
STOMP began it's run at the Orpheum Theatre in New York, after a sell-out run at Sadler's Wells in London's West End, in February '94. STOMP was nominated for "Best Entertainment" in the 1994 Olivier awards, going on to win the "Best Choreography" and a Drama Desk Award for "Most Unique Theatre Experience."
More recently the cast of STOMP recorded music for the "Tank Girl" movie soundtrack and will appear on the forthcoming Quincy Jones album "Q's Jook Joint." also featured in a series of three commercials for Target stores. The New York cast currently appears in the "Mr. Frear's Ears" series of short films, whilst "Brooms," premiered in London.
In September of 1995, the original cast, after sell-out tours across The States and in Japan, performed an expanded version of the show in the open air amphitheater at The Acropolis in Athens.
