Written by Willy Russell and featuring Maureen Nolan as Mrs.Johnstone, the legendary BLOOD BROTHERS tells the captivatingand moving tale of twins who, separated at birth, grow up on oppositesides of the tracks, only to meet again with fateful consequences.

Few musicals have received quite such acclaim as the multi-awardwinning BLOOD BROTHERS. Bill Kenwright’s production surpassed10,000 performances in London’s West End, one of only threemusicals ever to achieve that milestone. It has been affectionatelychristened the ‘Standing Ovation Musical’, as inevitably it “brings theaudience cheering to its feet and roaring its approval” (The Daily Mail).

The superb score includes Bright New Day, Marilyn Monroe and theemotionally charged hit Tell Me It’s Not True.

Each of theplays connects to the next through one ofits characters until the final one is reachedwhen four people sit alone on park benches.
