Be part of PTC’s lively Play Reading Series! Each month, a rotating cast of PTC actors and special guests bring a brand-new play to life in an intimate, one-night-only reading.This month’s pick: The Shark is Broken by Ian Shaw and Joseph Nixon

Step aboard the Orca and into THE SHARK IS BROKEN, a “profound dive behind the scenes of the making of Jaws” (The Daily Telegraph, ★★★★).
