The Jaws Project

Plays and Players Theatre
1714 Delancey Place Philadelphia

Stephen Spielberg's Jaws is the quintessential summer blockbuster, a cultural landmark and a watershed moment in Hollywood history. However, the production was a disaster. The budget had to be more than doubled due to production issues, harsh conditions shooting on the Atlantic, prop shark malfunctions, ruined camera equipment and more. As a look into the legend behind the legend, The Jaws Project is a wicked comedy, an unlikely love story and an unflinching examination of a turning point in American culture. You can witness the stage production all about the seemingly-doomed film production at Philadelphia's Plays & Players Skinner Studio.
