Theatrical streamer BroadwayHD has unveiled programming for the remainder of 2025, which includes debuts for Broadway and West End favorite The Shark Is Broken, a date for the previously announced live stage film of Bat Out of Hell, and more.

The former is coming to the service after being filmed during a 2025 U.K. tour, at the Lighthouse in Poole. The film features co-writer Ian Shaw reprising his West End and Broadway performance as his father, Robert Shaw, opposite Ashley Margolis and Dan Fredenburgh. Written by Shaw and Joseph Nixon, the play follows the behind-the-scenes drama on the filming of 1975's Jaws, centering on actors Robert Shaw, Roy Scheider, and Richard Dreyfuss. The play was a hit at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe Festival before coming to London's West End in 2021 and Broadway in 2023. The filmed stage performance will debut on BroadwayHD October 16.

Bat Out of Hell, which puts an original, dystopian story to the songs of the late Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf, is also coming to the service after being filmed on its U.K. tour. The film, captured at Wycombe Swan Theatre, will premiere December 12.

Also newly joining the service is the 1996 film version of The Crucible (October 1), the 1950 Broadway-centered film classic All About Eve (November 1), and the 1999 TV movie adaptation of Broadway's Annie (November 14). The service has also recently added the live stage filming of Newsies, originally released in 2017.
