"The Shark Is Broken: A Hilarious Broadway Comedy That Resurrects 'Jaws' Legacy"
TL;DR Summary
"The Shark Is Broken," a comedy play set behind the scenes of the movie "Jaws," opens on Broadway with a 16-week engagement. The play features fine performances and attention to detail, but lacks surprises and fails to provide thrills or much drama. While it captures the personalities of the film's cast without slipping into caricature, it feels a bit out of its depth on Broadway.
