Blood Brothers

Date: 03/04/2025
Time: 19:00
Following sell-out seasons of Seussical and The Addams Family, Nayland College is delighted to bring Blood Brothers to the Theatre Royal stage.

The 5th longest running show on the West End, with over 10,000 performances, Blood Brothers tells the captivating and moving tale of twins separated at birth, who grow up on the opposite sides of the tracks, only to meet again with tragic consequences.

When Mrs Johnstone, a young mother, is deserted by her husband and left to her own devices to provide for seven hungry children, she takes a job as a housekeeper in order to make ends meet. It is not long before her brittle world crashes around her when she discovers herself to be pregnant yet again – this time with twins. In a moment of weakness and desperation, she enters a secret pact with her employer which leads inexorably to the show’s shattering climax.
