"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"

"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."

"See,
hear, feel this Tommy again! Fans of the Tommy
phenomenon can breath easily."

"The
Who's driving music still feels supercharged, saturated
with real youthful desire. This Tommy has heart!"

"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."

"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."

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