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.brbrThe classic '60s rock opera by span style="font-style: italic;"The Who/span was translated to the stage by theatrical wizard a href="http://mtishows.com/biography.asp?writerid=3272"Des McAnuff/a into a high-energy, one-of-a-kind theatrical event. The exhilarating score is timeless in its youthful appeal, giving the show a cross-generational appeal that has made it a smash-hit in high schools and colleges around the world. A small rock band orchestration and spectacular original Broadway production slides allow you to capture the excitement of the New York production on a modest budget.
