Foundry Theatre: The Shark Is Broken
17 September @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm AEST

When the shark won’t work, the drama does.
Behind the scenes of Jaws, three actors are stranded on a boat as tempers flare, egos clash, and a cinematic legend hangs by a thread.
The Shark Is Broken is a razor-sharp, laugh-out-loud play about fame, failure, and friendship under pressure – an edgy, once in a lifetime theatrical treat that proves the biggest drama was never in the water.
