Cast and dates announced for Spring 2026 leg of BLOOD BROTHERS tour

Bill Kenwright’s legendary, award-winning production of the international smash hit musical Blood Brothers has announced its Spring 2026 tour dates, opening at Churchill Theatre, Bromley on 14 January.

Following Bromley, the tour will visit Crewe, Coventry, Guildford, Brighton, Derry, Dublin, Sunderland, Wellingborough, Hull, Bournemouth, High Wycombe, Bradford, Hertford, Richmond, and Lichfield.

Vivienne Carlyle will continue as Mrs. Johnstone having gained widespread critical acclaim and nightly standing ovations on the show’s most recent tours.

Richard Munday rejoins Blood Brothers as the Narrator, at certain venues, after playing the role on the 2022–2023 UK tour. He will share the part with Kristofer Harding, a role he first played in 2016 and returned to in the most recent 2025 tour.

Fresh from alternating the role of Elphaba in Wicked (West End) and covering Norma Desmond in Jamie Lloyd's production of Sunset Boulevard (West End), Laura Harrison returns to Blood Brothers. Harrison previously played Donna Marie in the 2015 tour and is now taking on the role of Mrs Lyons and alternate Mrs Johnstone.

For performances in Derry and Dublin, Mrs Johnstone will be played by Ireland’s own musical theatre legend, Rebecca Storm. Rebecca is thrilled to return to a role she has truly made her own and join the Blood Brothers company for a limited run at the Millenium Forum, followed by the Bord Gais Energy Theatre.

Sean Jones and Joe Sleight will also be returning as the twin brothers, Mickey and Eddie, and Gemma Brodrick will continue to play Linda.

Also reprising their roles are Michael Gillett as Sammy, Tim Churchill as Mr Lyons, Francesca Benton-Stace as Donna Marie/Miss Jones, Latesha Karisa as Brenda, Danny Knott as Perkins, Dominic Gore as Neighbour, Alex Harland as Policeman/Teacher, and Graeme Kinniburgh as Postman/Bus Conductor.
