STOMP has played its part in this year's Marshall Artists Series, and its final performance here was yesterday. Here's what the Herald-Dispatch had to say today:
After completing more than 5,000 performances around the world, it was only a matter of time before STOMP stopped in for visit to the Tri-State.
The award-winning, broomstick-busting show swept into Huntington with Tuesday and Wednesday night performances at the Joan C. Edwards Performing Arts Center as a part of the latest installment of the Marshall Artists Series.
Created in 1991, STOMP has won numerous awards, been featured in a record-selling HBO special and was named one of the best musicals or plays in the last 25 years by Entertainment Weekly.
During a week's worth of performances, the cast can go through 30 broomsticks, 12 sets of drumsticks, 200 liters of water and five short bins. Multiply that by 5,000 performances and that equates in to hundreds of thousands piece of equipment in the past 20 years.
The next event in the Marshall Artist Series will be Video Games LIVE at the Keith-Albee Performing Arts Center. The show is a concert featuring music from some of the most popular video games of all time.
