- Giggle and Stomp (a kids' take-off on the other "grown-up" version of Stomp) is showing at the NAC as part of its Kinderconcerts series. This musical journey of percussion starts in Africa, continuing through the Middle East, Europe and the Americas. If it's anything akin to the "real" Stomp, it's sure to be enjoyable.
