THE SHARK IS BROKEN celebrates the 50th anniversary of the release of Jaws (this summer) with a re-enactment of behind-the-scenes conversations between Richard Dreyfuss, Robert Shaw, and Roy Scheider as they make the movie in the early 1970s, never knowing the kind of success it would be. All they know is the challenges production poses as they wait for the mechanical shark to be repaired again and again. The play is co-written by Ian Shaw, the son of actor Robert Shaw. This play is right off Broadway and is making its Utah debut.

Run time: 90 minutes, no intermission.

Recommended for ages 8 and up. No infants being held. All patrons require a ticket regardless of age.
