TOMMY CAN YOU HEAR ME? The Who’s 1969 iconic rock concept album comes to life on the stage in this truly unique theatrical event. Deaf, dumb and blind young Tommy overcomes impossible odds to rise to stardom during this high-energy, inspiring and sometimes puzzling adventure.

With a live rock band and incredible score, The Who’s Tommy will leave audiences thoroughly entertained long after they’ve left the theater.

After witnessing the accidental murder of his mother's lover by his father, Tommy is traumatized into catatonia and, as the boy grows, he suffers abuse at the hands of his sadistic relatives and neighbors. As an adolescent, he's discovered to have an uncanny knack for playing pinball and, when his mother finally breaks through his catatonia, he becomes an international pinball superstar.
