 Time Magazine review; July 27, 1992
As mounted by La Jolla's artistic director, Des McAnuff, Tommy is a work in progress.
The title character, apparently deaf and blind from boyhood, is in fact rendered autistic by seeing his father shoot his mother's lover- an infidelity made less sordid by the fact that the father, a WWII airman, had been reported dead.
Although they will likely be replaced in any move, the La Jolla players are fine, especially Marcia Mitzman as Tommy's mother, Cheryl Freeman as a gypsy hooker and Michael Cerveris as Tommy- a ghostly image singing in the mirror as a child, a world-embracing saint as a man, a victim made a poet.

When the La Jolla Playhouse rose from its proverbial ashes in 1983, the phoenix it had become was the oddest bird the sleepy seaside community had ever seen.
The push that turned into pull was the climate of artistic risk-taking forged by La Jolla 's charismatic artistic director Des McAnuff, and that bold approach has helped him lead the institution to a prominent place among the country's top regional theaters.
Twenty-one plays and musicals that were developed at La Jolla or had premieres there went on to New York, where they racked up a Pulitzer Prize and 23 Tony Awards, two for McAnuff's direction ("The Who's Tommy" in 1993 and "Big River" in 1985).

The La Jolla Playhouse is one of the well-regarded theaters in America and has been for years.
Stating that the La Jolla Playhouse is a "tiny non-profit theater" is like George Lucas' infamous self-portrait as an "independent filmmaker from San Francisco" who "doesn't have a lot of resources."
The Playhouse has never really had a problem with that, not really, not like true "tiny non-profit theaters" who live and die by one lucky check or one tenacious artistic director living on cheese sandwiches and love.
