A new 'Student Edition' of Willy Russell's enduring 1983 play, 'Blood Brothers', offering accessible and vivid insights into the play and the context in which it was written through a 21st century lens. As well as exploring the key themes, characters and dramatic devices of the play, and how they map onto our experience today, it conveys how groundbreaking 'Blood Brothers' was at the time in representing working-class lives on stage, as well as explicitly exposing the flaws of the British class system. The commentary by Rebecca Hillman in this edition offers a much-needed analysis of the play with a lens that today's students will appreciate and be inspired by.
