Message in a Bottle, a new dance-theatre show featuring 27 songs from Sting's catalogue, will play New York's City Center April 30-May 12, 2024, as part of a current tour.
The Sadler’s Wells production, featuring the choreography of Sadler’s Wells Associate Artist
Kate Prince, is an imagined story about one displaced family, and a universal story of survival, hope, and love.
In the video above 17-time Grammy winner Sting says, "Message in a Bottle is a universal story of survival and community told through my music and some of the most brilliant
contemporary and street dancing I have ever seen—it's truly
extraordinary, and I cannot wait to see it again when it arrives right
here at City Center."
Attendees can expect to hear such Sting classics as “Every Breath You Take,” “Roxanne,” “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic,” and “Fields of Gold” featured in new arrangements by Alex Lacamoire, recorded by Sting and guest artists including Olivier winner Beverley Knight.
The creative team also includes music producer and arranger Martin Terefe, set designer Ben Stones, video designer Andrzej Goulding, costume designer Anna Fleischle, lighting designer Natasha Chivers, sound designer David McEwan, music co-producer and mixer Oskar Winberg, dramaturg Lolita Chakrabarti, associate choreographer Lukas McFarlane, music associate and additional arranger DJ Walde, resident director/choreographer Robia Milliner Brown, and assistant choreographers Tommy Franzen and Lizzie Gough.
Message in a Bottle is produced by Sadler’s Wells and Universal Music UK and co-produced with Birmingham Hippodrome and The Lowry, Salford.
