About The Who's Tommy

Myth and spectacle combine in The Who’s exhilarating 1969 rock opera, Tommy—including the unforgettable anthems “I’m Free,” “See Me, Feel Me,” “Sensation” and “Pinball Wizard.” After witnessing his father shoot his rival, the young Tommy Walker is lost in the universe, endlessly and obsessively staring into the mirror. An innate knack for pinball catapults him from reticent adolescent to celebrity savior.

Extraordinary Music and Theatre
"I only knew of this due to the song Pinball Wizard from the 70s. I knew nothing about the story or in fact that there was a story. It was well presented and the music was mindblowing Extraordinary and recommended "

Tommy deserves a longer run on Broadway!
"I want to thank my wife for making sure that we did not miss this amazing performance! It was 25 years between revivals and this show should stick around! The audience was so into it and the cast was so incredible. It's a shame there's only 10 days left. I hope they keep it"

Come on the Amazing Journey!
"So sad this is closing! It was amazing! The production, choreography, special effects, singing, orchestra all were terrific. Missed a few songs (Tommy's Holiday Camp) and there was no pinball machine! I'd see it again - one of the most fun shows ever!"

Love Tommy!
"Liked this production. Saw Tommy in 1993, and this was just as good. Music was a bit on the loud side, but otherwise it was terrific. "

Great production and a relevant reinterpretation for the times.

Just OK
"A lot of flash, not as much substance. Too much preamble. The Acid Queen is the best scene. Pinball Wizard also excellent but many scenes mediocre. Some questionable poetic license. Rarely was I wowed. It’s not terrible, just meh. "

Missed the Mark
"I love Pete Townsend. The Who’s Tommy - you can’t go wrong. However, this production did go wrong. Set, lighting, costumes and sound were all off and disappointingly didn’t work well with the Rock Opera. Most singers and dancers range were subpar. Understand why the show is closing early. Good luck next time. "

Should have had more music by the Who
"Really expected more We bought tickets for relatives and we all were disappointed. Didnt even have real pinball machine as prop. 2.5 hours wasted "
