The West End production of Blood Brothers has been running for 21 years. Now Richmond theatre welcomes the touring production of this award-winning musical written by Willy Russell, author of Educating Rita and Shirley Valentine.

Blood Brothers tells the poignant story of twins who, separated at birth, grow up on opposite sides of the tracks, only to be reunited by a twist of fate and a mother’s haunting secret.

This production stars Lyn Paul in the lead role of Mrs Johnstone, the mother who is forced to give away one of her sons at birth. Paul played the role for three years in the West End and frequently on tour.
