Tommy tells the story of Tommy Walker, a young boy growing up in the post war world. Upon seeing his father kill his mother’s lover, Tommy becomes deaf, dumb, and blind, irreversibly traumatized by the experience.
As his mother and father struggle to find a means to cure him, Tommy meets with abuse by both his Uncle Ernie and his Cousin Kevin, who unwittingly introduces him to pinball. Through the pinball machine, Tommy discovers his hidden talent as he gains both fame and fortune.. The classic 60’s rock opera by The Who is transformed into one of the most thrilling musical smashes of the 1990’s. A riveting, high-energy production.
