The Olivier Award-winning show is currently playing at the Ambassadors Theatre where it has enjoyed a record-breaking ten year run. The creators of Stomp, Steve McNicholas and Luke Cresswell added today that this will not be the end of Stomp in London:- “We want to emphasise that we don’t consider this the end of Stomp here; we actually feel it’s going to be good for the show to take a break, reconfigure, reinvent and return at some point in the future in a different London venue, where we can present the show in a way that is more in keeping with its original ethos.” Stomp was first performed in 1991 in Edinburgh.  The show played Sadler’s Wells Theatre in January 1994 and won the Olivier Award for Best Choreography, before opening in New York in February of the same year.  The European company was created in 1997 and began the show’s London run at the Vaudeville Theatre on 25 September 2002, transferring to the Ambassadors Theatre on 27 September 2007.  On Monday 25 September 2017, Stomp celebrated the show’s 15th Birthday in London’s West End.
