About the Show
Blood Brothers is a gripping, heart-wrenching musical by Willy Russell that follows the lives of Mickey and Eddie — twin brothers separated at birth and raised on opposite sides of class, opportunity, and circumstance. One grows up in poverty, the other in privilege, and though unaware of their connection, their paths continue to cross as children, teenagers, and finally as men. With humour, innocence, and tragedy intertwined, the show explores fate, family, identity, and the cost of social inequality.
We chose Blood Brothers because it offers powerful, emotionally resonant storytelling that invites both performers and audiences into a journey filled with laughter, heartache, innocence, and tragedy. The music is raw and unforgettable, blending driving narrative with deeply human ballads that leave a lasting impact. The show provides rich character development, allowing actors to grow from childhood to adulthood in roles that demand honesty, vulnerability, and nuance. Its themes of class, identity, and the circumstances that shape us remain strikingly relevant today, sparking conversation and reflection long after the curtain falls. This production celebrates ensemble performance, shared storytelling, and theatre that dares to ask difficult questions — all reasons we feel it is the perfect choice for this collaboration.
Blood Brothers is a show that stays with people — performed once, remembered forever.
A rewarding challenge for cast and creatives, and an unforgettable experience for an audience.

Synopsis
Dancing on the Elephant is a 2025 Canadian comedy-drama film about the friendship between two elderly women who embark on a quest for one last adventure. Nora, a seemingly healthy and independent woman, is involuntarily placed in the Shady Rest Retirement Home by her children after a minor stroke. Feeling trapped and stripped of her identity, she believes her life of adventure is over. She soon meets Edna, a feisty resident with early-stage dementia, who uses a walker and constantly plots to escape what she calls the “fox farm”. The two women realize they knew each other from school, bond over shared experiences, a love of “Fat Archies” cookies, and a mutual disdain for mundane retirement home activities like “Chair-xercise”.
