Mercury Summer Stock is pleased to present an encore presentation of  
Willy Russell’s groundbreaking musical, BLOOD BROTHERS. The epic  
tale, which is the second offering of Mercury’s 10th Anniversary  
Season, tells the captivating tale of twin boys, separated at birth  
only to be re-united by a twist of fate and a mother's haunting  
secret. BLOOD BROTHERS is the third longest running hit in musical  
theatre history, with the 1988 West End production still selling to  
capacity after a remarkable 21 years. Mercury Summer Stock’s staging  
of BLOOD BROTHERS will pair real-life brothers, professional actors  
Brian and Dan Marshall onstage as the fated twins.

The legendary BLOOD BROTHERS tells the captivating and moving tale of  
twins who, separated at birth, grow up on opposite sides of the  
tracks, only to meet again with tragic consequences. The incredible  
score includes the British Billboard hits Bright New Day, Not Saying  
A Word and the emotionally charged hit Tell Me It’s Not True. Few  
musicals have received quite such praise as the multi-award winning  
BLOOD BROTHERS, which, having opened in 1988 to tremendous acclaim,  
continues to enjoy standing ovations at every devastating  
performance. No wonder BLOOD BROTHERS is now ‘The musical for all time’.

Brian Marshall (Edward Lyons) was last seen in Cleveland as Man #2 in  
The Playhouse Square Broadway Series mounting of Forbidden Broadway  
SVU at the pre-renovated Hannah Theatre. Dan Marshall (Mickey  
Johnston) played right next-door as Jeremy DiMini in the long-running  
We Gotta Bingo, at the 14th Street Stage. Both are members of Actors

and in tours across the USA. With Mercury Summer Stock, they have  
been seen onstage together in numerous shows, most recently in
