About the event
THE SHARK IS BROKEN
By By Ian Shaw & Joseph Nixon
Directed by Stephen Deininger
As the film celebrates its 50th anniversary, dive deep into the behind-the-scenes drama, humor, and humanity that unfolded during the making of Jaws. Centered on the tense, often hilarious dynamic between actors Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss, and Roy Scheider, the play offers a revealing look at the real-life personalities behind the iconic characters of Quint, Hooper, and Brody. Set almost entirely aboard the stranded Orca during filming delays, it explores ego clashes, artistic frustration, and unexpected camaraderie—echoing the larger themes of fear, fame, and legacy that Jaws so powerfully captured. Both a love letter to a cinematic legend and a sharp reflection on what it means to create under pressure, THE SHARK IS BROKEN is a timely tribute that deepens our understanding of a film that changed Hollywood forever.
