This Olivier Award-nominated new play is “hilariously brilliant and pure genius” raves the Sunday Express (★★★★★) and stars Ian Shaw ( War Horse, Common) as his father, Robert Shaw, Alex Brightman ( Beetlejuice, School of Rock) as Richard Dreyfuss, and Colin Donnell ( Anything Goes, “Chicago Med”) as Roy Scheider.ĭirected by Olivier Award winner Guy Masterson, co-written by Ian Shaw and Joseph Nixon, and inspired by Robert Shaw’s experience playing Quint on the notorious shoot, THE SHARK IS BROKEN celebrates movie history and peeks at the choppy waters behind Hollywood’s first blockbuster.
