Has anyone got any information on a play written by Willy Russell called Bloodbrothers? Its set in Liverpool about twins seperated at birth and they die at the end.
I need to do some research on it but cant seem to find any info on it on the web.

Try this for a start. Or this Education Pack.
This is a brilliant play - would recommend it to anyone.
if you buy the play there is information in the beginning. Have you actually seen it? It is still on at Phoenix Theatre in London - and you can get a programme with lots of info.
We do it for Drama GCSE at school - is this what you are doing?
Blood Brothers was written in the 1970s and deals with issues at the time eg unemployment/poverty and the differences between working and middle classes. The theme of superstition runs throughout - the narrator acts like a conscience reminding the characters of their bad luck. hth
