Hayes Theatre Co's BLOOD BROTHERS Begins Tonight in Sydney
Blood Brothers, at Hayes Theatre Co; commences performances today 6 February. Blood Brothers is one of the longest running musicals in theatre history and demand for tickets has been unprecedented, making it the fastest selling show at Hayes Theatre Co ever. Blood Brothers has already extended its season until Sunday 15 March and only limited tickets are still available.
With a book, music and lyrics by Willy Russell (Educating Rita, Shirley Valentine), the London production of Blood Brothers ran for more than 24 years, winning every British "Best Musical" award along the way. It is one of only three musicals in history to play for more than 10,000 performances - the other two are LES MISERABLES and The Phantom of the Opera.
Produced by Enda Markey and presented in association with Hayes Theatre Co, Blood Brothers plays at Hayes Theatre Co for a strictly limited season and it is a rare opportunity for Australian audiences to witness this masterpiece with a thrilling cast performing in an intimate setting where it becomes even more powerful.
