Sting's collection

"When The Last Ship arrives at The Met, I'll have the rather surreal distinction of two shows featuring songs I've written playing on Broadway simultaneously. Moulin Rouge won't be around much longer, so try to see it while you still can."

"I know there's another show on Broadway involving a very large ship, so naturally, it had to be included here! What I find rather amusing is that Céline Dion and I share more history than most people know — we've both had residencies at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, and I had the pleasure of presenting her with a GRAMMY back in 1997."

"A British musical comedy built on a stranger-than-fiction true story — what's not to love? If you're drawn to The Last Ship for its history, its heart, or simply its Britishness, I suspect Operation Mincemeat will suit you just as well. A perfect pairing for history buffs, devoted theatregoers, and anyone who appreciates the particular genius of British absurdity done brilliantly."

"For seven years now, this extraordinary musical has moved audiences - including myself - in ways that are genuinely rare. There's also a connection here that delights me: in The Last Ship, Shaggy plays a mythical figure known as The Ferryman — a character who, by nature and by purpose, would feel entirely at home in the Greek underworld of Hadestown. Two worlds, one river. Go and see both shows!"
