STOMP – DALLAS SUMMER MUSICALS

@Fair Park ~ February 17 and 19, 2017 ~ tickets are $15.00-85.00

This concert showcases an eight-member troupe that uses everything but conventional percussion instruments – matchboxes, wooden poles, brooms, garbage cans, Zippo lighters, hubcaps – to fill the stage with magnificent rhythms. As the Boston Globe says, “If you haven’t seen STOMP, GO! If you have seen it, take someone and share the pleasure!” STOMP. This is perfect if you want to enjoy some unconventional music!
