The UK’s number one tribute to The Who has been invited to perform at The Empire Theatre.

Quadrophonia will be performing an adrenalin fuelled evening of rock ’n' roll capturing the time when The Who were the greatest rock and roll band.

This electrifying show faithfully recreates a golden era in rock history with Hiwatt Amps, Rickenbacker and SG guitars, white boiler suits and Dr. Martins, loony drummers, skeleton suits, microphone whirling, cymbals crashing and four incredibly talented musicians performing all Pete Townsend’s greatest hits from the early 60s and 70s.

Songs include Mod classics such as Substitute, Pictures of Lily, I Can’t Explain and Young Man Blues to rock anthems like My Generation and the show-stopping Won’t Get Fooled Again.

The show also features a Live At Leeds-style Tommy set including Amazing Journey, I’m Free, Sparks, Acid Queen, Pinball Wizard and climaxing to a finale of See Me, Feel Me.

The Who is one of the most influential rock bands of the 20th century.

Its appearance at Monterey and Woodstock helped give them a reputation as one of the greatest live rock acts and they have been credited with originating the "rock opera".

As of October 2014, the group has sold over 100 million records worldwide.

Quadrophonia will be performing on April 30 at The Empire Theatre, Butler Road, Halstead.

Doors open at 7.30pm for an 8pm start.

Tickets are £10 from the box office on 07778 025490 between 12noon and 10pm daily.
