This compelling documentary tells the story of the Cotuit Center for the Arts production of the stage musical version of The Who's Tommy. The show was set to take the stage in March 2020— then COVID shut the nation down. Two years later, the cast reunited to bring the rock opera back to life. Follow along and experience the joy, fear, anxiety, and love that this brilliant cast and crew bring to the production.
