Review: THE SHARK IS BROKEN SETS SAIL at JOBSITE THEATER
by Drew Eberhard - Mar 13, 2026

Alcohol flows, egos collide, and tempers flare on a chaotic voyage that just might lead to cinematic magic... if it doesn’t sink them all... Words...pulled directly from Director David Jenkins most recent Facebook post, promoting Jobsite Theater’s most recently launched production of Ian Shaw’s The Shark is Broken.
