Can You See The Real Me?

Quadrophenia is a phenomenon that has influenced so much since it's release in 1979. Watching it is a who's who of British actors and musicians and is probably the greatest depiction of British youth on film.



Even today you can still get guided tours around Brighton, get soundtracks from Vinyl and CD's to downloads. Videos, DVDs, Blu Rays and it's even on iTunes. You can find the original Quadrophenia book by Alan Fletcher online as well as the Quadrophenia Anthology by Gary Wharton and To Be Someone by Peter Meadows, an interpretation of what might have happened after Beachy Head.












Countless t-shirts and other items of apparel and accessories have found their way into production off the back of the cult following the film got. Some of better quality than others.




After a successful stage show that toured in 2009 the UK is now braced for The Who touring major arenas with the Quadrophenia and More tour in a move that will not only cement the popularity of Quadrophenia to it's loyal supporters, but bring it to a whole new audience.
