About the production
Did y’ hear the story of the Johnstone twins?
The phenomenally successful production of Blood Brothers played to packed houses at the Hayes Theatre in Sydney in early 2015 and transferred to Melbourne later that year.
Willy Russell’s multi-award winning musical tells the unforgettable story of the Johnstone twins. Separated at birth when their mother cannot afford to keep them both, Mickey and Edward grow up streets apart, becoming best friends but never knowing the truth of their heritage.
