Like many Broadway and Off-Broadway shows, Stomp has suffered declining ticket sales since reopening after the COVID pandemic It was initially reviewed in the New York Times as a 'modern vaudeville revue with a rock-and-roll heart, it is part tap-dance display (using some of the heaviest taps ever attached to shoes), part military drill, part swinging street festival.' When it closes in January, it will have played 11,472 performances, excluding 13 previews, according to Deadline. The show opened at the Orpheum in late February of 1994. It reopened in July of 2021, following a 15-month hiatus. Unlike some shows playing further uptown, Stomp was among the first performances to return to the stage following the COVID lockdowns. The New York Times reported the closure is due to declining ticket sales. Though the producers did not offer a specific reason for the show's close in their statement, the New York theatre industry has still not fully recovered following the COVID pandemic. Producers thanked the staff of the theatre who worked tireless to make the show a hit from its first show to its last 'While we're sad to see it close at The Orpheum Theatre, we couldn't be prouder of the impact that Stomp has had - and will continue to have - as the tours run both here and in Europe,' they said.įor the show's entire New York City run, it has played at the East Village's Off Broadway Orpheum theatre. 'We could not have imagined the remarkable success it would enjoy, becoming part of popular culture, touring for years, and making an unmistakable imprint on the theatre landscape here and all over the world.
In a statement released Tuesday, Stomp's producers said, 'We fell in love with Stomp when we first saw it in Europe and when we brought this hard-to-describe show here, we imagined that it would find an audience.' The show will play its last New York City performance on January 8, 2023, and will continue its North American and European tours. The show, which features an eight-member cast, has no words and comprises percussion, movement, and everyday objects like lighters, brooms, boots, shopping carts, trash cans, and hammers being turned into music.
The long-running Off-Broadway show Stomp will close in January, concluding a three-decade run in Manhattan's East Village.
