Stomp

A wildly entertaining show that will have your heart ponding to the infectious rhythms that 12 brilliantly synchronised performers beat our with truck inner tubes, rubber hosing, Zippo lighters, plastic bags, metal dustbins, bin lids, tubs, water butts and, yes, even the kitchen sink! And then there are brooms that are turned into soft shoe partners, and a row of folding chairs that are straddled, slid, slammed and slapper into rhythmic submission. Tickets range from R75 to R295 at the Opera House.
