Description

Alex Brightman and Colin Donnell join Ian Shaw in this comedy that answers the question of what happened aboard The Orca when the cameras stopped rolling in the 1975 Spielberg classic, Jaws. (Shaw's father Robert played Quint in the film.) The play is set in the open ocean where Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider are left in a too-small boat that is threatened by both the weather and a faulty mechanical co-star, referenced in the name of the show.
