EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a memorable moment from the photocall at the Playhouse Theatre in Liverpool, just before the opening night of the original production of Willy Russell's groundbreaking musical "Blood Brothers" in January 1983. The image features the esteemed playwright Willy Russell (centre) flanked by two of the show's leading actresses, Wendy Murray as Mrs. Lyons (left) and Barbara Dickson as Mrs. Johnstone (right). The 1980s setting is palpable in the photograph, with the cast and crew dressed in the fashion of the era and the theatre's ornate, vintage decor providing a fitting backdrop. The excitement and anticipation of the upcoming premiere are evident in the smiles and poses of the individuals involved, as they prepare to share this powerful and moving story with audiences for the first time. "Blood Brothers," which tells the tale of fraternal twins separated at birth and the consequences of their reunion, was a critical and commercial success, running for over 10,000 performances in the West End and winning numerous awards. The show's enduring popularity is a testament to the exceptional writing of Willy Russell and the captivating performances of its talented cast, including the unforgettable portrayals of Wendy Murray and Barbara Dickson in their respective roles. This photograph, taken by Eddie Barford from Memory Lane Prints, serves as a poignant reminder of the magic that unfolds on the stage during the creation of a new theatrical production, and the lasting impact it can have on audiences for generations to come.
