The Who's Tommy, Pete Townshend and Des McAnuff's groundbreaking 1993 rock opera, celebrated its official return to Broadway at the Nederlander Theatre on March 28. Helmed by McAnuff, the musical's original director and co-book writer, the productionstars Ali Louis Bourzgui as Tommy, with Alison Luff as Mrs. Walker, Adam Jacobs as Captain Walker, John Ambrosino as Uncle Ernie, Bobby Conte as Cousin Kevin and Christina Sajous as Acid Queen.
With a long a storied history of thrlling and baffling crowds in equal measure, Broadway.com had to craft a portrait studio with appropriately Tommy energy. Take a look as the stars and creatives of the anticipated Broadway revival enter a rock-and-roll pinball dreamscape, from which they may never emerge.
