Play based on the making of the movie 'Jaws' will debut on Broadway this summer

A stage play about the making of the blockbuster movie "Jaws" will soon take a huge bite out of Broadway.

The play is a behind-the-scenes look at the three main actors in the Steven Spielberg movie - Robert Shaw as shark hunter Quint, Roy Scheider as the police chief and Richard Dreyfuss as an oceanographer. Shaw said the play - which has played the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and London - has been edited and re-edited ahead of its Broadway bow, which will also be his Broadway debut."In the play, they're all facing up to their demons and they don't always do it brilliantly," he said.

It's also gave us the classic line "You're gonna need a bigger boat!" and frightened a lot of people from going swimming.
