The Last Ship casts down its anchor and celebrates its Broadway opening at the Neil Simon Theatre on October 26. To celebrate the Sting, John Logan and Brian Yorkey tuner’s maiden voyage on the Great White Way, Broadway.com resident artist Justin “Squigs” Robertson created this sketch of the cast in action.
The portrait features (clockwise from top left) Michael Esper as Gideon Fletcher, Collin Kelly-Sordelet as Tom Dawson, Aaron Lazar as Arthur Millburn, Rachel Tucker as Meg Dawson, Fred Applegate as Father O’Brien, Jimmy Nail as Jackie White and Sally Ann Triplett as Peggy White.
Broadway.com wishes the cast of The Last Ship a radical nautical opening!
About the Artist: With a desire to celebrate the magic of live theater and those who create it, and with a deep reverence for such touchstones as the work of Al Hirschfeld and the wall at Sardi’s, Squigs is happy and grateful to be among those carrying on the traditions where theater and caricature meet. He was born and raised in Oregon, lived in Los Angeles for quite a long time and now calls New York City his home.
