"As Philadelphian as cheesesteaks." — WHYY
After a sold-out run in our 24/25 Season, Tommy and Me returns for a two-week engagement on the Haas Stage! Philadelphia Eagles' Hall of Famer Tommy McDonald (played by PL company artist Tom Teti) was the famously tough wide receiver who helped take the Birds to the 1960 NFL Championship game. Beloved Philly sports commentator Ray Didinger's autobiographical show recounts a seminal time in Ray's life when he helped his lifelong hero get into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Tommy was drafted by the Eagles in 1957 and played on the team until 1964. At Franklin Field, he helped the Eagles win against Vince Lombardi's Green Bay Packers. If you missed this smash hit in Malvern last time, make sure to get your Tommy and Me tickets early and experience this heartfelt tribute to football, friendship, and Philly.
