Based
on the iconic 1969 rock concept album, The
Who's Tommy tells the story of a young boy who triumphs over his
adversities. After witnessing a violent murder as a child, traumatized Tommy
slips into a catatonic state, rendering him deaf, mute and blind. As his
existence wears on, he's abused by sadistic relatives and neighbors - but an
uncanny knack for the game of pinball saves his life. He rises to international
superstardom, and inspires people all over the world. This five-time Tony
Award-winning show featuring music and lyrics by Pete Townshend is exhilarating
and has cross-generational appeal with its stirring story of hope, healing and
the human spirit. Now you can hear, see and feel the phenomenon when El Camino
College brings this exhilarating production to life.
