The international sensation STOMP makes a surprise cameo appearance on Guy Fieri's popular Food Network show "Guy's Big Nite" tomorrow Wed. Feb 25 at 10 PM.

The appearance will be rebroadcast on Saturday February 28 at 8 PM.

The Food Network is Channel 224 on RCN in New York. (Please check your local cable provider for the channel near you).

STOMP plays at New York's Orpheum Theatre, on North American tour, in London and on European tour.

From its beginnings as a street performance in the UK, STOMP has grown into an international sensation over the past fourteen years, having performed in over 350 cities in 36 countries worldwide. STOMP continues its phenomenal run with the ongoing sell-out Off-Broadway production at New York's Orpheum Theatre, a North American tour, and two productions overseas - a London company and a European tour. A production in Las Vegas from STOMP's creators, Stomp_Out_Loud/">Stomp_Out_Loud/">Stomp Out Loud, is now playing at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino.

STOMP, an overwhelming success marked by rave reviews, numerous awards and sell-out engagements, is the winner of an Olivier Award for Best Choreography (London's Tony Award), a New YorkObie Award, a Drama Desk Award for Unique Theatre Experience, and a Special Citation from Best Plays. The young performers "make a rhythm out of anything we can get our hands on that makes a sound," says co-creator/director Luke Cresswell. Stiff-bristle brooms become a sweeping orchestra; Zippo lighters flip open and closed to create a fiery fugue; wooden poles thump and clack in a rhythmic explosion. STOMP uses everything but conventional percussion instruments - trashcans, tea chests, plastic bags, plungers, boots, and hubcaps - to fill the stage with compelling and infectious rhythms.
