BILL KENWRIGHT LTD PRESENTS WILLY RUSSELL’S BLOOD BROTHERS.
Written by Willy Russell, the legendary Blood Brothers tells the captivating and moving tale of twins who, separated at birth, grow up on opposite sides of the tracks, only to meet again with fateful consequences.
Few musicals have received quite such acclaim as the multi-award winning Blood Brothers. The production ran for more than 10,000 performances in London’s West End, one of only five musicals ever to achieve that milestone. It has been affectionately christened the ‘Standing Ovation Musical’, as inevitably it “brings the audience cheering to its feet and roaring its approval” (The Daily Mail).
The superb score includes Bright New Day, Marilyn Monroe and the emotionally charged hit Tell Me It’s Not True.
Age Guidance – 12+ Contains gunshot sound effects, strong language, mild sexual references and adult themes, low smoke, haze, strobes, and flashing lights.
Show opens Tuesday 6 October 2026 to Saturday 10 October 2026
Performance Times:
Tuesday 6 October, 7.30pm
Wednesday 7 October, 2.30pm and 7.30pm
Thursday 8 October, 2.30pm and 7.30pm
Friday 9 October, 7.30pm
Saturday 10 October, 2.30pm and 7.30pm
