Blood Brothers

The play "Blood Brothers" is coming to the Town Hall Portrush on 11th and 12th November 2016.


Synopsis

Blood Brothers is the story of the Johnstone twins, Mickey and Eddie, who were  separated at birth and who reunite and become friends in their childhood, not knowing that they are related.

Mrs. Johnstone discovers she is pregnant with twins and tells Mrs. Lyons (her employer) about her fears that she will not be able to support both children. Mrs. Lyons is a wealthy and deceitful woman who cannot have children of her own. She convinces Mrs. Johnstone to give her one of the twins  (Eddie) and  promises that she will raise him in the lap of luxury.  Mrs. Lyons then fires the mother in hopes of making Eddie all her own,  however she is unable to separate herself and Eddie from the Johnstone family, which leads both families to a tragic end.

Blood Brothers  is  full of raw emotion and deception. This moving production  is bound to leave you thinking.
