Joe McElderry is Planning to Rock Blackpool Opera House in Tommy

THE X-Factor winner turned musical theatre star Joe McElderry says he can't wait to come to Blackpool Opera House this autumn.

Joe, who shot to fame after winning the ITV talent show in 2009, is to play the lead role of TOMMY in the UK Premiere staging of a new production of The Who's classic Rock Opera.

This multi award winning adaptation of the original chart topping album tells a powerful tale of a deaf, mute and blind pinball player who becomes an international messiah.

And Joe says while the role is a challenge it is 1 he can't wait to bring to the stage.

"I can't wait to be back in Blackpool. The audiences are always so supportive and I always have so much fun on stage there. TOMMY is a fantastic show to be part of and to be staging the premiere of this new production in Blackpool is a great opportunity."
said Joe.

TOMMY opens on Friday, 11 September 2015 and plays through to Saturday, 26 September 2015.

This smash hit Broadway and West End show will be directed by stage and screen star PAUL NICHOLAS who starred alongside Elton John, Roger Daltrey and Tina Turner in the 1975 film release of the show. The new show coincides with the 40 year anniversary of the film.

Joe added:- "I'm really looking forward to performing at the Opera House and to being involved in bringing such an iconic show to the town. It will also be great to be in Blackpool for a couple of weeks with the show rather than just nipping in and out so I'm hoping to get to see some of the sights when I'm there."

This colourful, exciting, imaginative and thought provoking new production will be enhanced by exhilarating choreography and will feature 1st class rock musicians. TOMMY was 1st performed by The Who in 1968 and was conceived by Pete Townsend and Kit Lambert with contributions to its development by John Enstwhistle, Keith Moon and Roger Daltrey.

It is not the 1st time that Blackpool audiences will be thrilled by The Who classics; the legendary rockers played the world famous Opera House twice in August 1964 and October 1961 to critical acclaim. 

Tickets for TOMMY are on sale now. For more details go to:- WinterGardensBlackpool.Co.UK.
