JAWS has been one of my favorite films since it first made me scream when I was a boy. From the opening notes of its famous score to its glorious final shot, I’ve been obsessed with this movie's every detail for as long as I can remember. Whether teaching the film to college students or showing it to a first-time viewer, I’m always excited to share my love for this masterpiece- and I can’t wait to do just that at the Playhouse..."
