Dressed in a \u00a0suit and red hat, Townshend took the stage to introduce a performance\u00a0from the show, which began with\u00a0a snippet of \u201cSee Me, Feel Me.” Then Townshend really kicked\u00a0things off\u00a0with the opening chords of \u201cPinball Wizard\u201d before the full cast joined in for the song.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Who\u2019s Tommy<\/span><\/em> was nominated for Best Revival of a Musical at this year’s Tonys, but lost out to <\/span>Merrily We Roll Along.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/em>The 1993 original run of the show<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em>won five Tony Awards, including Best Original Score for Townshend.<\/span><\/p>\n
