⭐ RUMOUR – THE LAST SHIP – LONDON PREMIERE PLANNED ⭐
The long-awaited London premiere of THE LAST SHIP, the musical by Sting, is reportedly being planned, it has been rumoured.
The London premiere will reportedly be part of the current international tour, with the musical set to premiere by the end of this year.
Sting is currently starring in the renewed version of THE LAST SHIP, the acclaimed musical first developed by Sting in 2011 and initially inspired by his 1991 album The Soul Cages.
Rooted in his own childhood in the British shipbuilding town of Wallsend, THE LAST SHIP tells the moving story of a community of shipbuilders in the northeast of England, faced with the closure of their shipyard – the heart of their existence.
Sting’s music – from raw folk and rousing choirs to intimate ballads – forms the beating heart of the production. THE LAST SHIP is a true musical odyssey carried by powerful and moving melodies and lyrics with well-known songs such as “Island of Souls”, “All This Time” and “When We Dance” interwoven.
This revised production of THE LAST SHIP features a new book by Barney Norris, from a book by Lorne Campbell, based on an original book by John Logan & Brian Yorkey.
Fingers crossed London finally gets to see this musical! ! !
