What a fantastic show!
It would have been even more fantastic however, if another real actor was onstage instead of Jonathan Wilkes and his mighty ego. At the end he seemed to be taking all the credit and to believe that the applause was for him alone. None of my applause was directed towards him, it was solely for the rest of the cast, who were extremely good. It is a real shame that production companies feel the need to have a big star to try to sell their show when they tend to be the worst part of it.

I saw Tommy on the 1st of March and My Mum and I thought it was fantastic. I think its the best show I've seen. Thank you Jonathan and the rest of the team for a great night out.

Just wanted to say thank you for bringing this production back to The Mayflower as I didn't get to see it last time round. And I'm pleased to say that I was by no means disappointed - what a fantastic show! Well done to all involved, especially Jonathan Wilkes who was brilliant and not bad to look at either! I enjoyed it so much I am thinking about going again before the end of the week!

Absolutely brilliant, lots of energy, a great evenings entertainment. Could The Who have done it live like this? Thanks

Jonathan Wilkes and the Tommy cast gave a fantastic performance. Pete Townshends music was brought directly from the past into our seats with a visual and mind blowing impact. The cast acted as a catalyst in sending the music out into the heart of the audience. Hand clapping and vocal chord bruising..the louder the cast sang the more the audience responded. Everyone was on their feet and having a blast. I think that Mary may be wrong in thinking that Jonathan was getting the audience to clap for him. Jonathan was telling us to live..feel...move... with the music and kept us on our feet until the final curtain came down. He did it for us not himself thats what entertainment is about. He made us all sing dance and laugh and I certainly went home with a feel good factor!

Me and my mum went to see the performance of Tommy and thought it was excellent. Jonathan Wilkes was superb (and good looking) as well as the rest of the cast, I would like to see other shows with him in it!

Thought Tommy was absolutely fantastic, couldn't take my eyes off the stage from beginning to end. The whole cast was brilliant and Jonathan Wilkes was fab! Seen him twice now, in Grease and Tommy and thought he was excellent both times! Also thought the young lad who played 4 year old Tommy was great too, and also the understudy for 10 year old Tommy who had to take over 1/2 way through! Had an excellent night and can't wait to come again!

Me and my mum saw the show last night and the atmosphere there was amazing especially on the last night it was there. We though Jonathon Wilkes was amazing but we could see a bit of Robbie Williams in him.
Thanks Mayflower for a wonderful show.

I think that the play could have been better, if the play was a little more acting with proper speaking and less singing!

Great show, what a pity the show writers did not research the details! When Capt Walker came home. HE was killed by his wife's lover, not vice versa as depicted in the show...

Fantastic. We love you Johnny

Saw this at the Kings in Glasgow. Mr. Wilkes really has found his niche in stage shows. I await the charity album with eager anticipation, already owning the original and OST. Jonathon, break the charts with Miss Simpson!
