Inspired by Sting's childhood in the North East of England, The Last Ship is a powerful new production of the acclaimed musical that celebrates community, resilience and hope.
The 17-time Grammy Award winner returns to the stage as Jackie White in this heartfelt story of a shipbuilding town facing an uncertain future. Featuring a new book by Barney Norris and a large cast of more than 50 performers, this is an epic musical filled with some of Sting's most beloved songs.
Set in the shipbuilding town of Wallsend, The Last Ship follows a close-knit community as they face the closure of the local shipyard that has defined generations of workers. As livelihoods, identities and traditions are threatened, the town must come together to fight for its future. Through love, loss and determination, the story explores the bonds that keep a community afloat during times of change.
