That would be the Who’s Tommy, and the entire rock opera will be performed by Captain Quirk & Friends tonight at Miners Alley Playhouse. “I used to play in bands in college, and we’d do pieces of Tommy,” explains producer and director Rick Bernstein. “It’s just brilliant – one of the best albums ever made.” After the performance of Tommy – complete with audio-visual staging elements -- Captain Quirk & Friends will perform covers from other classic rock bands until midnight.
