Pada awal 1970-an Jethro Tull pergi dari sebuah band blues progresif ke salah satu konser terbesar menarik di dunia. In concert, the band was known for theatricality and long medleys with brief instrumental interludes. Dalam konser, band ini dikenal dengan sandiwara dan medleys panjang dengan instrumental selingan singkat. While early Jethro Tull shows featured a manic Anderson with bushy hair and beard dressed in tattered overcoats and ragged clothes, as the band became bigger he moved towards varied costumes. Sementara awal Jethro Tull menunjukkan menampilkan manik Anderson dengan rambut lebat dan janggut mengenakan mantel lusuh dan pakaian compang-camping, sebagai band menjadi lebih besar ia bergerak menuju kostum bervariasi. This culminated with the War Child tour's oversized codpiece and colourful costume. Perang ini memuncak dengan Anak tur besar yang codpiece dan kostum berwarna-warni.
Other band members joined in the dress-up and developed stage personae. anggota band lain yang tergabung dalam tahap kepribadian gaun-up dan dikembangkan. Bassist Glenn Cornick always appeared in waistcoat and headband, while his successor Jeffrey Hammond eventually adopted a black-and-white diagonally-striped suit (and similarly striped bass guitar, electric guitar, and string bass). Bassist Glenn Cornick selalu muncul di rompi dan ikat kepala, sementara penggantinya Jeffrey Hammond akhirnya mengadopsi putih bergaris-garis diagonal jas-dan-hitam (dan juga bergaris gitar bass, gitar listrik, dan bass string). It was a 'zebra look', and at one point a two-manned zebra came out excreting ping pong balls into the audience while both performers moved forcefully around their stage areas. John Evan dressed in an all-white suit with a neck-scarf of scarlet with white polka-dots; described as a "sad clown" type with extremely oversized shoes, he joined in the theatrics by galumphing back and forth between Hammond Organ and grand piano (placed on opposite sides of the stage in the Thick as a Brick tour) or by such sight-gags as pulling out a flask and pretending to drink from it during a rest in the music. Barriemore Barlow 's stage attire was a crimson tank-top and matching runner's shorts with rugby footgear, and his solos were marked by smoke-machines and enormous drumsticks. Martin Barre was the island of calm amongst the madmen, with Anderson (and sometimes Evan) crowding him and making faces during his solos. Itu adalah 'melihat zebra', dan pada satu titik dua-berawak zebra keluar mengeluarkan bola ping pong ke arah penonton sedangkan kedua pemain pindah paksa sekitar wilayah panggung mereka. John Evan berpakaian putih dalam memenuhi segala dengan syal-leher dari merah dengan polka-titik putih; digambarkan sebagai menyedihkan badut "tipe" dengan sepatu yang sangat besar, ia bergabung dalam drama oleh galumphing bolak-balik antara Hammond Organ dan piano grand (ditempatkan di sisi berlawanan dari panggung di Tebal sebagai Brick tur) atau oleh-sight gags seperti menarik keluar termos dan berpura-pura minum dari itu selama istirahat dalam musik. Barriemore Barlow pakaian 'panggung adalah tangki dan pencocokan runner's celana pendek-top merah dengan alas kaki rugby, dan solo nya ditandai dengan asap-mesin dan stik drum besar. Martin Barre adalah pulau tenang di antara orang gila, dengan Anderson (dan kadang-kadang Evan) crowding dia dan membuat wajah selama solo nya.
The band's stage theatrics peaked during the Thick As A Brick tour, a performance distinguished by stage hands wearing the tan trench-coat/madras cap ensemble from the album art, extras in rabbit suits running across stage and an extended interlude during which Barre and Barlow entered a beach-tent onstage and swapped pants. panggung sandiwara's Band ini memuncak selama Tebal Sebagai tur Brick, kinerja dibedakan dengan tangan panggung mengenakan topi tan trench-coat/madras ansambel dari seni album, figuran dalam pakaian kelinci berlari melintasi panggung dan selingan diperpanjang selama Barre dan Barlow memasuki pantai-tenda di atas panggung dan bertukar celana.
A Passion Play was planned to have a full-length film to go with the stage theatrics. A Passion Play direncanakan memiliki panjang film penuh untuk pergi dengan drama panggung. However, from this effort, it seems that only a few excerpts have survived to be re-released on recent commemorative videos of the band, including the interlude "The Story of the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles." Namun, dari upaya ini, tampaknya hanya beberapa kutipan selamat harus kembali dirilis pada peringatan video terbaru dari band, termasuk selingan "Kisah Hare Yang Hilang Kacamata-Nya."
A similar multi-media effort had been planned for Too Old To Rock and Roll... but was not completed. Upaya multi-media serupa telah direncanakan untuk Terlalu Tua Untuk Rock and Roll ... tapi belum selesai. Thereafter, the emphasis on theatrics was reduced but never eliminated. Setelah itu, penekanan pada drama berkurang tetapi tidak pernah dihilangkan. In 1982's Broadsword and the Beast concerts, the entire stage was transformed into a Viking ship. Pada tahun 1982's Broadsword dan konser Beast, seluruh tahap berubah menjadi sebuah kapal Viking. Anderson often dressed as a country squire on tours in the late 1970s, with the rest of the band adopting the style during their folk phase. Anderson sering berpakaian sebagai pengawal negara pada wisata di akhir 1970-an, dengan sisa dari band mengadopsi gaya selama fase rakyat mereka. The A tour featured the same white jumpsuit uniforms worn by the band on the album cover. Tur A menampilkan jumpsuit seragam putih yang sama yang dikenakan oleh band pada cover album. Certain routines from the 1970s have recently become ensconced in concerts, such as having a song interrupted by a phone call for an audience member (which Anderson now takes on a cell) and the climactic conclusion of shows including bombastic instrumentals and the giant balloons which Anderson would carry over his head and toss into the crowd. rutinitas tertentu dari tahun 1970-an baru-baru ini menjadi berlindung di konser, seperti memiliki sebuah lagu disela oleh panggilan telepon untuk anggota audiens (yang sekarang Anderson mengambil sel) dan kesimpulan klimaks menunjukkan termasuk instrumental bombastis dan balon raksasa Anderson yang akan membawa di atas kepalanya dan melemparkan ke kerumunan.
