The stage and atmosphere was brilliant. It was such a down to earth story with first class acting and singing . As a singer myself it was so good to hear obviously trained voices and no yelling. The story was compelling and Sting's performance was first class there were so many exciting moments I was enthralled by the whole show.

Who would have thought a story about shipbuilding could be so powerfully emotional and totally engaging. A great narrative , sensational music and a wonderfully captivating performance by the entire cast. It's different, but that's what makes it so special. My advice is see it before it's too late. You certainly won't be sorry did.

The Glasshouse is a stunning venue for Sting's musical The Last Ship. The songs are beautiful, and it's a strong performance by the whole cast. Sting plays his part brilliantly, as a leader in his final act of rallying the shipbuilding community. It's a gorgeous mix of English folk, rock and poignent songs of life and struggle.

Classy Act. A spur-of-the-moment ticket purchase resulted in 2.5 hours of absolute pleasure. This show tops the list in a long time. Captivating life stories, divine voices, talented musicians, breathtaking backdrop. Five Stars. Thank you Sting and entire cast & crew. Laughter, tears and applause and a standing ovation.

We loved the entire performance. Wasn't like the normsl musical but had Brecht and Kurt Weil aspects with all the new technology. Amazing acting with Sting 's handwriting all over the show. Also loved the new theatre Glasshouse

Written, composed and starring international music icon Sting, THE LAST SHIP arrives in Brisbane for its Southern Hemisphere debut at QPAC’s Glasshouse Theatre in 2026.

Inspired by Sting’s childhood in Wallsend in the United Kingdom, THE LAST SHIP tells the story of a community facing the disappearance of their shipyard.

Sting takes on the leading role of Jackie White, bringing personal depth and a moving tribute to the people and place that shaped him.

Expect a sweeping score of raw folk, rousing choirs, and tender ballads with favorites like Island of Souls, All This Time, and When We Dance.

The story

Set in the shipbuilding town of Wallsend in the United Kingdom, THE LAST SHIP tells the story of a close-knit community facing the closure of their local shipyard, with foreman Jackie White leading the workers in a final act of defiance to build one last ship, intertwining themes of love, loss, and community.
