"Fans of the classic film Jaws or the legendary actors at the center of that iconic movie, and those who enjoy stories about the chaos of moviemaking, are in for a real treat with The Shark Is Broken, which is receiving a wonderful area premiere production at Ghostlight Theatre. Funny, thoughtful, and unexpectedly poignant at times, the play offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the boredom and often tense downtime experienced by the stars during the filming of Jaws while the ongoing issues with the film's mechanical sharks continually delayed the production. Co-written by the son of one of the movie's leading men, what could have simply been a vanity piece about his father instead becomes an engaging character study filled with sharp humor, compelling performances, and a genuine affection for both the film and the people who made it." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
