Stomp Out Loud Lands at Planet Hollywood

STOMP OUT LOUD, the extraordinary new production from the creators of the international sensation STOMP, comes to Planet Hollywood Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas this spring with a cast double the size of the original production and performed inside a new, $28 million theater specifically created for this production. The show opens this March.

Directed and created by Luke Cresswell and Steve McNicholas, STOMP OUT LOUD will begin performances on March 24, 2007 with a grand opening slated for early April.

A unique combination of percussion, movement, and visual comedy, STOMP has created its own inimitable form of musical entertainment. With STOMP OUT LOUD, the experience is transformed for Las Vegas with new sequences and choreography, a dynamically expanded cast and a completely new environment that will immerse the audience from the moment they enter the 1,500-seat theatre. STOMP OUT LOUD is a journey through sound, a celebration of the everyday, and a comic interplay of characters wordlessly communicating through dance and percussion.

“We are very excited to bring STOMP OUT LOUD to Las Vegas because it gives us the chance to do things with the show that we’ve always wanted to do,” says co-creator Steve McNicholas. “We think it’s an ideal match and look forward to showing audiences a side of STOMP that they’ve never seen before,” added co-creator Luke Cresswell.

“STOMP OUT LOUD brings an energy, wit and exuberance that makes it the perfect entertainment centerpiece for Planet Hollywood,” said Robert Earl, co-chairman of Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. “Whether you’ve seen STOMP before or not makes no difference. You’ve never seen anything like STOMP OUT LOUD.”

STOMP OUT LOUD will perform in The Showroom at Aladdin Resort & Casino, soon to be Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino Thursday though Tuesday (dark Wednesday) with ticket prices ranging from $50 to $110. Tickets are scheduled to go on sale by March 1.
