"Loaded with special effects and featuring one of the finest scores in rock opera history, Pete Townshend's tale of the deaf, dumb and blind boy is not only highly entertaining, but amid all the fireworks, manages to be both profound and surprisingly moving" – Philadelphia Weekly

"The cast destroys the Broadway mold, with leather-clad chorus girls and dangerous-looking blokes who came straight out of a pub. In other words, it's rock 'n' roll, baby. Tommy makes you stomp your feet and pound your fist. This show is true theater." – Denver Post

"See, hear, feel this Tommy again! Fans of the Tommy phenomenon can breathe easily." – Star Telegram

"The Who's driving music still feels supercharged, saturated with real youthful desire. This Tommy has heart!" – San Diego Union-Tribune

"Extremely well-sung and performed, The Who's Tommy is a first rate production. Those seeing it for the first time will enjoy the world's first classic-rock opera. Those who have seen it before should relax, sit back, enjoy it even more." – Las Vegas Sun

"A streamlined, energized production that whisks the audience along through a modern world of gleaming scaffolding and mirrors that create a Gattaca-like environment. This Tommy is a vibrant creation that gives equal time to rock and opera." – Rocky Mountain News

"The cast makes a strong ensemble. Their boundless reserves of energy power the show to its rousing "listening to you" conclusion." – The Plain Dealer
