A Galaxy of Stars Arrive for the Gala Performance of The Last Ship

A Galaxy of Stars Arrive for the 

Gala Performance of The Last Ship

At Northern Stage, Newcastle, local celebrities thronged to the  gala performance, held in aid of the Graham Wylie Foundation and all funds raised on the night will support the Newcastle-based charity which was formed to ‘help, inspire and educate children across the region.’

We sent our photographer to get some shots on the red carpet:

Sting spoke of the importance of the shipbuilding story being told, and that it was perhaps his duty to his hometown that he was the one to do it. 

This personal, political and passionate new musical from multiple Grammy Award winner Sting, is an epic account of a family, a community and a great act of defiance. The Last Ship features an original score with music and lyrics by Sting as well as a few of his best-loved songs; Island of Souls, All This Time and When We Dance.  It is the proud story of when the last ship sails.

The Last Ship is produced by Northern Stage in association with Karl Sydow and Kathryn Schenker. The performances in Newcastle are sponsored by North P&I Club. North is a world leading mutual marine insurance group.
