'YOUR A F- OFF!' At my school, if someone shouts that, the entire crowd dies laughing. Also that is the best Mickey ever, haven't you noticed that he can't hold in the laughter of his own actions? Hahahahaha!
I like how Con O’Neil (Mickey) can play all the different ages perfectly like how at the age of 7 when Eddie and Mickey meet he is a childish little kid and then when he is a depressed adult. He is the best actor that I know c
Robert O'Niell (Or Con O'Niell, his stage name) is hands down the best Mickey Blood Brothers has ever had. He won an Olivier award for it and was truly deserving- he was born to play Mickey Johnstone!! I've never seen any other actor (including Sean Jones who everyone raves about) perform the 'I wish I was our Sammy' monologue anywhere near as good, and can pull of the hormonal teenager and depressed adult Mickey just as amazingly!!
Holly Newton Couldn't agree more. I've been doing this play in Drama and everytime I get the part as Mickey I always try to play it like Con O Neil does.
James Dawson I'm afraid not. Too early I think, though it's possible to pick up the soundtrack, if you're lucky. All I can find is a clip of Barbara Dickson (the original Mrs Johnstone) singing Easy Terms onstage. There are several clips of this, mostly from TV shows, but the one with her in a brown overcoat and pram is actually from the show. I worked front-of-house in the Lyric Theatre with this show and recognise the stage set. It had transferred from Liverpool with a mostly unknown cast and, even in the first couple of months, became a surprisingly successful hit. Bear in mind that this was Lloyd Webber's heyday and he had several shows on the West End at that time. It was an amazing time to be working in the West End. :)
There is no better cast I've seen for this play. I adore this play, it renders emotions like nothing I've ever seen. The contrast made by the quick switches between comedy and tension and suspense. Beautiful.
Best blood brothers cast -- Sean Jones (Met him) -- Mickey Mark Hutchingson -- Eddie Kristofer Harding -- Narrator Maureen Nolan -- Mrs Jonhstone Tracey Spencer -- Mrs Lyons Danielle Corlass -- Linda Daniel Taylor -- Sammy Tim Churchill -- Mr Lyons
I had to go see this for GCSE drama, back in 2000 when it was on at the Phoenix in London. My mum and I both loved it so much we kept going back again and again. I was really bummed when I found out it had ended without me hearing about it. If I could have I would have gone one last time. Unfortunately the stage tour is nowhere near me this year.
If you like the actor Con you should watch him in Dancin thru the dark......it's an adaptation of the stage play stags and hens.....very versatile actor
Amelia Jay that's not Craig in this version. He did it in Liverpool back in 2008 and this performance is 1998 and a London production. Also Craig played Eddie Lyons x
haven't done for English but i am studying for drama, i went to the blood brothers musical in guild hall. It was truly outstanding, for sure one of my top best productions ever.
the thing is he is scouse mickey is and im scouse but i live in Telford so it is easy for me to do the accent the thing is about this act its really interesting.
doing the mickey linda bit's for gcse drama. when your teacher says it's a bit lovy dovy and your crush says, 'do you wanna go with me?' too good to be true.
I'm doing this for drama assessment, well, everybody in my year had too. And I only remembered up to the 'It is. If y'our Sammy' from the start, so hard, that's why we have to memorise it each section
They are so good, half way through I forgot they were Adults! the way the actors are staged tio have the kids normaly on the floor or lower when adults are around is very well done, and the actors captured the perfect vision of a child in that era! BRAVO!
im doing blood brothers for drama i think if you watch the original cast the first video then you get more of the realisation of what it was like set where it was.
I think everyone who does GCSE drama does this phenomenal play!
And GCSE eng,ish

'YOUR A F- OFF!'
At my school, if someone shouts that, the entire crowd dies laughing.
Also that is the best Mickey ever, haven't you noticed that he can't hold in the laughter of his own actions? Hahahahaha!
i agree!
We were reading the play in class, and some kid got permission to say that. He took the opportunity to scream it at the top of his lungs. Good times.
When some kid swears: BRUH
Shush
I like how Con O’Neil (Mickey) can play all the different ages perfectly like how at the age of 7 when Eddie and Mickey meet he is a childish little kid and then when he is a depressed adult. He is the best actor that I know c

No, it's definitely Con O'Niell
Holly Newton No, it's me!!!!
Holly Newton Couldn't agree more. I've been doing this play in Drama and everytime I get the part as Mickey I always try to play it like Con O Neil does.
I disagree. Sean Jones does it for me
I'd have to say Sean Jones is probably about joined first with con O'Neil
We’re in lockdown and I’ve been sent this from me drama teacher bit confused tbh
Bhahahah same bro
same id rather just google it
Same here

My drama teacher made us watch this as homework.

Same, I’m watching it now for work
This is the best version of this I have ever seen. I have no words the actors are just amazing and the voices and accents just outstanding
+Jodie Giffen They're not too bad but I still prefer the original 1983 West End cast.
+Kerensa Birch is it on TH-cam
James Dawson

+Kerensa Birch I've never saw it before so I wouldn't be able to compare them:)
Jodie Giffen
It's such a great show, it doesn't really matter.
"I will always defend my brotheeeeeeeeeeer" 😂😂
I've somehow arrived here from our flag means death and HOLY MOLY Con is such a talented actor, he can play such wildly different characters
There is no better cast I've seen for this play. I adore this play, it renders emotions like nothing I've ever seen. The contrast made by the quick switches between comedy and tension and suspense. Beautiful.
I would have LOVED to have done this for English. Be grateful y'all have an interesting script; An Inspector Calls is dire.
inspector calls was great:) it hasn't going any humour in it though- bit bleak.
Izzy It's easy to write about and has a solid political message but as an actual piece it inspires absolutely no interest in me
Neru Akita I think that was the same for most people :) don't worry.
Izzy haha i'm not but thank you :)
Inspector calls is sooooo boring.
This was the original and the best version of Blood Brothers. What a shame it wasn't filmed and made available as a dvd.
I went to see this last night,I cried my eyes out at the end. It’s the best musical I’ve ever seen😭❤️
We're doing this for gcse in English anyone else
iDelirious03 the yr 9s are doing it for drama gcse and the playground song is sooooooo good

This performance couldn't have been more perfect
I love these two! We were only told to watch this for our drama play and now im watching it every day
if i got a penny for every time i had to watch a 480p video with canned laughter from 2011, i would be trillionaire
My son and his best friend have just performed this bit for their drama exam, it was fantastic
7:30 Ohhh shhhhiiiiit here comes slender!

I was really bummed when I found out it had ended without me hearing about it. If I could have I would have gone one last time. Unfortunately the stage tour is nowhere near me this year.
i love how they completely throw themselves across the stage! Escpecially Mickey (:
I finished school but I still watch this cos it’s amazing
The stunt by 3:08 is that hard to make, or can you still make, it look wild without hurting yourself?
It’s probably a fake knife
LoL
u alive ?
They would’ve practiced it enough times so that it probs doesn’t hurt that much
I am Edward! Play is tomorrow and I have not learnt my lines! Watching this vid for inspiration
Watched this with drama class in school and watched twice as an adult. A masterpiece
This video is older than me but here I am, watching it so I can answer questions for homework 😢
I have no idea how many times I have had to watch this play my school is making us watch it like 5 times every time you have drama!
I've just auditioned as Mickley today for the school show and we had to watch it and no one could stop laughing
God, mrs lyons is so delightfully insane!
I love the actor for Eddie!
who is it?
@@emilyghee7453 Robert Locke
Violin 2006 thank u
Mark Hutchinson seen him in this show he is amazing
I move all the time so I have to learn this every time I go to a different school and I swear it gets better every time I watch it
Love this musical. Saw it at the Phoenix a few years ago and am just waiting for it to come back to my home town of Newcastle to see it again.
I'm watching this thinking why did we change from this amazing piece of funny theatre into the dullness of An Inspector Calls.
Who plays Mickey in this.I need to find out, he's amazing!
+Megan Green Con O'Neill - he won a Laurence Olivier award in 1988 for "Best Actor in a Musical", and he was nominated for a Tony award as well.
ScottieGirl20 oh okay, that's great thanks!
If you like the actor Con you should watch him in Dancin thru the dark......it's an adaptation of the stage play stags and hens.....very versatile actor
Megan Green he's called Craig whitely, he's my drama teacher
Amelia Jay that's not Craig in this version. He did it in Liverpool back in 2008 and this performance is 1998 and a London production. Also Craig played Eddie Lyons x
So great to see these recordings. Thank you MrPoochsmooch.
Edward: tOuCh mICKEy's sHOUldEr
Mickey: *flies to space*
literally siblings.
i knew it.
just finished watching the whole show con is so incredible as mickey ive come back to see him being hillarious after how it ends
I have watched many different versions of this play and the actor who plays Mickey in this production is the best Mickey I’ve seen out of all of them
Con O Neill!! He’s a great actor, I’m only watching this for him knowing who he is now. I didn’t know years ago in class though 😅
I'm learning this in drama right now and I love it
we are being forced to watch this at home as homework by our drama teachers button ⬇️
Love this scene! I'm playing Linda soon, and kids game is going to be amazing fun :)
Im legit learning this for English....
And now......
I LOVE THIS!!!
Its 15 minutes long and I'm dying. It's a good play, but I'm dying. I have to watch this for homeworkkkkkkk wish me luck.

Sammy: Unnggghhhhhhh! 😂
Remember seeing this play as a kid in 2011 :) great- and it's a coincidence...but I have a twin called Eddie too.
Key quotation from this scene: "YOUR A FUCKOFF!"
haven't done for English but i am studying for drama, i went to the blood brothers musical in guild hall. It was truly outstanding, for sure one of my top best productions ever.
I went to see it too, it was amazing!

Watching this again for a Drama assessment, i have to play Mikey its so hard to do the accent
the thing is he is scouse mickey is and im scouse but i live in Telford so it is easy for me to do the accent the thing is about this act its really interesting.
You’re not the only one!
Mycroft Holmes you lose marks for not attempting a scouse accent, but it you don't get it right you get more marks then if you don't try at all.

:) (:
5:30 fuck's sake they have known each other for about five minutes and suddenly they're like 'HE IS THE BEST FRIEND I'VE EVER HAD'
they are playing kids and kids(up until a certain age) usually don´t care if they have met each other before when they play
They're only 7...
No they're not, they're nearly 8..
They are so good, half way through I forgot they were Adults! the way the actors are staged tio have the kids normaly on the floor or lower when adults are around is very well done, and the actors captured the perfect vision of a child in that era! BRAVO!
im doing blood brothers for drama i think if you watch the original cast the first video then you get more of the realisation of what it was like set where it was.
I need to make a set for this scene as homework.
Saw this in Toronto back in the 90's with David Cassidy. The accent and accent was spot on. David was a great singer but a better actor.
Btw this Eddie is Robert Locke not mark Hutchinson, RIP Robert Locke he was the best but I love con so much x
