STING in “THE LAST SHIP”
The musical show written and composed by STING will be presented for the first time in France, and with STING on stage, at La Seine Musicale from February 18, 2026.
Drawing inspiration from his own childhood and his musical roots, STING tells the moving story of a shipbuilding community in the northeast of England facing the closure of their shipyard.
Taking on the role of Jackie White in this deeply personal performance, the artist immerses us in a world filled with love, loss, and hope.
“The Last Ship”, a true musical odyssey carried by powerful and moving melodies and lyrics.
The album, like the musical, pays homage to the historic Newcastle shipyards where Sting grew up.
Following the resounding success of the album released in 2013, certified platinum in France, this iconic work will come to life on stage at La Seine Musicale with a spectacular full production, featuring a company of 28 artists, musicians and choristers.
Show in English and with surtitles, produced by Karl SYDOW
Program and cast
La Seine Musicale
La Seine Musicale is a music and performing arts center located on Île Seguin an island on the Seine river between Boulogne-Billancourt and Sèvres, in the western suburbs of Paris, France.
Adress: La Seine Musicale, Île Seguin, 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt, France
Auditorium Patrick Devedjian
Nestled like a gem in a case of glass and wood, the Auditorium Patrick Devedjian is the centerpiece of our building. It can accommodate up to 1,150 spectators and is dedicated to acoustic music, featuring the greatest classical ensembles and musicians, foremost among them the resident orchestra: Insula orchestra.
Its appearance is open to interpretation: a bird's nest, a giant liner, "the ball"...
From the outside, its glass facade is protected and powered by a gigantic array of solar panels that moves in synchronization with the sun, overlooking the concrete liner.
From the inside, the 1,150-seat hall awakens our senses. Dedicated to classical music, jazz, and world music concerts, its light blonde wooden ceiling, cardboard tubes, and paper reveal all the secrets of the excellent acoustics of this stage.
Its Acoustics
Studied by the Nagata and Jean-Paul Lamoureux firm to ensure the best possible sound reproduction for the audience. All precautions have been taken to guarantee exceptional acoustics with the precision of a musical instrument.
Its Design
Modular, its vineyard-style arrangement creates a genuine proximity with the audience surrounding the artists. The interplay of lights, the beauty of materials (wood, mosaics, glass), and the 360° panorama are all designed to match the pleasure of the eyes with that of the ears.
Its design aims to create a sense of visual and acoustic intimacy shared between the audience and the musicians. The atmosphere of the hall is warm, with curved wooden walls and ceiling contributing to the hall’s unique sound identity. Access to the hall is provided on three levels by large suspended walkways offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. These are connected by large staircases forming a continuous promenade around the hall.
