BLOOD BROTHERS is a musical with book, lyrics, and music by Willy Russell. Carmel Community Players and director Kathleen Clarke Horrigan, will hold official auditions on November 29 and 30.
Set in Liverpool from the 1960s through the early 1980s, BLOOD BROTHERS tells the story of twin boys, Mickey and Edward. Their mother, Mrs. Johnstone, is already struggling to raise seven children when she discovers she is expecting twins. Unable to afford to keep them both, she makes a desperate pact with her wealthy employer, Mrs. Lyons, agreeing to give one baby away. Edward is raised in comfort and privilege, while Mickey grows up in poverty, shaped by the struggles of working-class life. Separated at birth and unaware of their true connection, the boys lead very different childhoods in the same city.
At the age of seven, Mickey and Edward meet by chance, discovering that they share a birthday. They immediately become close friends, swearing to be “blood brothers,” yet neither knows they are, in fact, real brothers. Their bond stays strong into adolescence, even as both develop feelings for Mickey’s neighbor and childhood friend, Linda. As the years pass, however, the class divide between them becomes harder to ignore...
