‘STOMP’ is coming to Packard hall


WARREN — “STOMP,” the percussion show that has become an international phenomenon, will come to Packard Music Hall on Dec. 1. Tickets range from $35 to $79 and go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday at ticketmaster.com, by phone at 800-745-3000 and at the Packard box office, 1703 Mahoning Ave.

Starting as a street performance in the UK 20 years ago, “STOMP” has visited more than 50 countries. It is regularly updated, and this year it will incorporate two new pieces.

The performers “make a rhythm out of anything we can get our hands on that makes a sound,” said co-founder and director Luke Cresswell. A unique combination of percussion, movement and visual comedy, “STOMP” has created its own inimitable and idiosyncratic form of rhythmic expression.
