For more than 14 years, the explosive dance, theatre and percussion extravaganza, STOMP has thrilled audiences with its rhythmic and funny performances, and now it is headed to Australia and New Zealand to make some noise on the other side of the equator!
Internationally adored and roundly praised, STOMP is a high-spirited show of physical power, music, dance and humor. It is a show that is guaranteed to set everyone’s pulse racing with the wild rhythms of percussion on the move.
Now in its 14th year of performance, having played over 10,000 performances to over 10-million people in 42 countries across five continents; STOMP is a remarkable theatrical phenomenon.
Performers use everyday household objects in non-traditional ways; garbage bins, brooms, drums and matches all are used to create amazing music and dance. High-energy, fast-moving and physically spectacular, STOMP’s mix of bodies, objects and sounds are performed with humour and theatrical finesse.
OOCL has earned the reputation of being the premier ocean carrier to sponsor West End and Broadway musicals.
OOCL is the official ocean carrier of STOMP, moving the stage sets, instruments and costumes from the UK to Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney, Australia, to Auckland and Wellington, New Zealand, via Singapore, for performances from late May to July 2006. In support of the tour, the supplies have to arrive at every destination on time – in keeping with showbiz motto: 'the show must go on'. OOCL has deployed a 40’ High Cube container to carry the supplies, and uses its industry-leading IT to co-ordinate the entire cargo process.
The production team is personally updated at every stage of the transportation chain, ensuring every procedure is transparent and perfectly managed. Through OOCL's spirit of ‘We Take It Personally’, the OOCL team ensures that the right vessel is reserved, the right equipment is ordered and advance information is provided to the production team of the show to ensure everyone is informed of the progress of the containers.
At OOCL, we know that backstage, perfect timing is what ensures the show can go on, and OOCL is there; making certain that all the equipment and props get to their final destination in time for the perfect performance. OOCL and STOMP: We'll move you.
