Blood Brothers

Tell me it's not true... The Saunders & Co Season of Blood Brothers - The Smash-Hit Musical!

One of the greatest British musicals of all time, Blood Brothers is a gripping, gritty and heart-wrenching story of twins separated at birth—raised in opposite worlds, bound together by fate, and doomed by a secret too powerful to stay buried.

Set in working-class Liverpool and written by Olivier Award-winning playwright Willy Russell, this legendary musical ran for 24 years in London’s West End and continues to captivate audiences around the world. With its soaring score, unforgettable characters and emotionally explosive ending, Blood Brothers is “the standing ovation musical” that leaves no heart untouched.

This brand-new Christchurch production pays homage to the iconic 1990s tour that first brought Blood Brothers to local audiences, while reimagining its visual world for a powerful 2025 return.

Don’t miss this haunting and timeless tale of love, class, destiny… and the price of silence.
