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 tragic consequences.

Starring The X Factor’s Niki Evans as Mrs Johnstone, the superb score includes Bright New Day, Marilyn Monroe and the emotionally charged hit Tell Me It’s Not True.

EXCLUSIVE: SPICE Girl MEL C will be performing the part of Mrs Johnstone on Saturday 6th November at 2.30pm and 7.30pm. Tickets will sell fast!

Few musicals have received quite such acclaim as the multi-award winning Blood Brothers, and Bill Kenwright’s production, having recently celebrated its 21st phenomenal year in London, continues to enjoy standing ovations at every devastating performance.

Although the Grand has been able to attract large musical productions over the years for the community, the theatre retains a very small proportion of the income generated by box office sales. The theatre relies upon income generated through the booking fee, ancillary sales and sponsorship.
