Willy Russel - Blood Brothers

Willy Russel - Blood Brothers
Originally a play about the story of of twins who were separated by their mother because she could not afford to raise two more kids and so sold one of the two was later turned into a wonderful and fabulous musical which ran for over two decaeds in London's West end. I had the chance to attend three performances, back in 1989, 1995 and again in 2005. The story as well as the music has been thriling me ever since. Being funy and witty at times it also contains a lot of scoial criticism To fullly understand the play one has to look deeper into the background of English society during the early Thatcher years.
