Chaminade Stages ‘Brothers’

The question of nature versus nurture in child rearing will be on full display in Chaminade University’s production of Blood Brothers, opening at Mamiya Theatre at 7:30 p.m. April 17.

Based on the novel by Willy Russell, Blood Brothers focuses on two brothers, Mickey and Eddie, fraternal twins unknowingly separated at birth. Mickey grows up poor with his birth mother and siblings, while a wealthy couple adopts

Eddie. Nevertheless, the two boys are drawn toward one another — with tragic results.

The show runs April 17, 19 and 24-26. The curtain goes up at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 4 p.m. Sundays.

Tickets cost $20 and $10 and can be ordered online at eventbrite.com/e/blood-brothers-musical-tickets, or at Chaminade’s business office.
