Photo Flash: First Look at Media Theatre's THE WHO'S TOMMY

By:

"The Who's Tommy", the rock and roll sensation from Pete Townshend and the famed band, is on stage at The Media Theatre each weekend now through August 9. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

The show is directed by Broadway World Award winning director Jesse Cline, with music direction by Christopher Ertelt and a live band on stage. It's part of the theatre's summer event schedule, and features several professional actors in key roles.

With Friday evening shows at 7pm, Saturday performances at 2pm and 7pm, and Sundays at 3pm, State Street in Media will be home to the Pinball Wizard through most of the summer. For tickets ($12-15), call The Media Theatre at 610-891-0100 or visit mediatheatre.org.
