Review: THE SHARK IS BROKEN, Richmond Theatre
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Feb 18, 2025


The premise of The Shark is Broken is deceptively simple; three men in a boat, waiting and talking.

Robert Shaw, Roy Scheider, and Richard Dreyfuss would go on to star in the iconic 1975 film Jaws which sparked a lifelong fear of the ocean for many.

Review: South Coast Repertory Presents WISH YOU WERE HERE
by Michael Quintos - Jan 20, 2025


Directed by Mina Morita, the play—an emotionally-absorbing drama with sprinkled bits of comedy—is, at its core, a poignant exploration of deep friendships, colored by a devotion to cultural and religious identity and the fears of displacement and upheaval set against the backdrop of Iran's political turmoil in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Featuring an outstanding ensemble of five very gifted actors that give their respective roles distinct personalities and quirks, the play transcends some of its staging obstacles to ultimately become one of the most emotionally resonant and relatable plays of SCR's 61st season.
