The Who's Tommy -
Circle
Theatre
May 13 - July 19, 2009
music & lyrics by Pete
Townshend
book by Des MacAnuff & Pete Townshend
directed by Carolyn Brady Riley & Jeffrey Cass
Circle delves back into the world of rock operas in the
tradition of such classic Circle musicals as Jesus
Christ Superstar, Hair and Evita. Tommy
is sure to please music and theatre lovers alike with
its blend of stage craft wizardry, soaring vocal
gymnastics, and gripping characters.
After
witnessing a brutal crime, young Tommy is so traumatized
that he is rendered mute. As his life meanders on in
post World War II England, he suffers abuse from
sadistic relatives and neighbors. Tommy's life is saved,
however, when he falls in love with pinball and achieves
super stardom as a pinball wizard!
