Twin brothers separated at birth. One prospers, the other falls on hard times. They grow up to be friends then bitter enemies – living under the prophecy that the day they find out about their true relationship will be the last day of their lives.
Funny, captivating and heartbreakingly sad, the Olivier-Award winning Blood Brothers is one of theatre history’s longest running musicals. Hailed by UK’s Sunday Times as one of the best pieces of musical theatre ever written, it has been met with standing ovations time after time.
Blood Brothers explores classic themes of fate and destiny, nature versus nurture, class, childhood and adolescence, superstition, humour and tragedy. Written by Willy Russell, one of the world's leading contemporary playwrights, this emotional and gripping musical will undoubtedly capture the imagination of your students.
This production is suitable for ages 11 and above. Schools booking is now open. Tickets for the public will be available at all URBTIX outlets from October 2015 onwards. Sign up to our email list to be the first to receive updates.
