Richard Dawson to direct Arcade Players' latest play, Blood Brothers at The Duchess

Arcade Players bring Willie Russell’s Blood Brothers to Long Eaton’s Duchess Theatre from 4–7 November 2026.

Kirsty Corbett caught up with Richard Dawson, the show’s director. He talks about the story’s message that people often fall on hard times through no fault of their own, and says why it still feels relevant today. Tickets are available from the Duchess Theatre website and can be bought now.
