“A deliriously funny send up…the world seems to be a better place with this musical parody in it.”
- John Soltes, Hollywood Soapbox
“JAWS: the (Very Unauthorized) Musical!” is an over-the-top, musical love story where a shark falls in love with a woman, people get eaten, and marine biologists break into song. Perfect for both the film’s fin-attics and newcomers of all ages. This high-energy spoof features fast-paced comic lunacy and catchy songs like “Fishing the Great White Way,” “At Night He Swims Home To Me,” and “When A Shark Attacked My Heart.”
“The music is well-done, the writing is strong, and the show delivers plenty of laughs… Consider it the perfect date night event. Where else are you going to get a touching romantic comedy and gruesome shark attacks?”
- Bryne Harrison, StageBuzz
