Description
The album is inspired by Sting's play of the same name, which was released in 2014 and is a collaboration with Tony Award winners Joe Mantello (director; Wicked, Other Desert Cities), John Logan (writer; Red, Skyfall) and Brian Yorkey (writer; Next to Normal). The Last Ship tells the story of the demise of the shipbuilding industry in 1980s Newcastle which had, for so long, shaped and overshadowed the city, its development and its community. The Last Ship explores the central themes of homecoming and self-discovery, drawing upon Sting's own memories of growing up in the shadow of the Swan Hunters Shipyard in Wallsend. The album comes pressed on 180 gram Vinyl.
