Tommy Review Finally Published

I'm sleep deprived, I need to wrap up a review from the weekend. I'm not complaining it was a once in a lifetime event and I did get to see a legend. I'm excited about tomorrow night as I get to see one living legend and some talented musicians salute an ultimate legend. I'm not complaining. I know I used the world legend a lot but these are the true greats. I will share those later.

However, what I want to blog about is the show I saw on my birthday. It was a production of the musical version of The Who's Tommy. I'm a Who fan, I've seen the band a few times. I've seen the touring show of Tommy. I must confess I was truly impress by the students at Shenandoah University.Yes I know they have a strong reputation for music, dance and drama. However, these kids deserve a lot of credit. You can read my review here. The arts are strong at that institution.

Here is a selection from the Broadway Cast..


Here are The Who performing some Tommy numbers..



Stay tuned some neat posts will be coming up soon..

Theatre Recap

Well I have one more review in process. It is for The Who's Tommy now playing at Shenandoah University in Winchester, Virginia. If you are in the area check it out it is playing through the weekend. It is a great show,,,

Any way I attended two more plays since the last time I wrote about theatre in here. The first one was Three Bears which I mentioned before hand. It is good, family entertainment a bit short. My daughter loved it. It is playing in Tyson's Corner through March 4th so you still have time to enjoy it. Here is my full review.

Civilization (All You Can Eat) was what I saw last week at the Woolly Mammoth Theatre in Washington, D.C.. The play sports an all star local regional cast. The theatre also has some pretty cool interactive activities going on. You can read my review here.

If you can't make it too these shows support your local theatre scene you might find some great shows!
