Stings New Theatre Show About A Shipyard

     The show is a musical about a shipyard in Wallsend, England.  The city in Newcastle, northeastern England, in the United Kingdom,  where Sting (Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner) grew up.  "The Last Shipyard" is a story set in an Englishtown, whose shipbuilding industry is on its last ships, before the factory shuts down.  The shows lead character wants more than a factory life, and leaves to travel the world, very similar to what Sting himself has done. Sting will perform a 10-night benefit fundraiser in New York, at the 260-seat Anspacher Theatre, from Sept. 25 thru Oct. 09 to highlight some of the shows music and debut his new album entitled, "The Last Shipyard".  See also, www.nytimes.com.
