= Miami New Drama = Miami New Drama (MND) is a non-profit theatre company based in the Colony Theatre in Miami Beach, Florida. MND is committed presenting world-class stories by and for Miami's uniquely multicultural audience. Their work is grounded in the passions of the diverse Miami community with their mission to bring "extraordinary stories to an extraordinary city".

History
Miami New Drama was founded in 2016 by Michel Hausmann and Moises Kaufman after Hausmann moved to Miami seeking to establish a theatre company that celebrated the diverse stories of the Magic City. MND's inaugural production of Hausmann's original musical, Golem of Havana, set it off as a premiere location for theatre in South Florida. The company quickly took residence in the Colony Theatre on Lincoln Road and celebrated its first full season from 2017-18, with the presentation of four innovative and widely praised productions. Miami New Drama has brought world-renowned theater makers into its cohort and works to foster strong and lasting relationships between the company and its visiting artists. MND prioritizes producing new work or re-imagined versions of existing shows in order to best serve their Miami audience.

Golem of Havana
Golem of Havana was Miami New Drama's premiere production in January and February of 2016. Written and directed by Artistic Director Michel Hausmann, Golem of Havana tells the story of a Hungarian-Jewish family living in Cuba just before the Revolution. The show was so widely successful and acclaimed that the City of Miami Beach granted Miami New Drama full-time residence in the Colony Theatre on Lincoln Road.

Our Town
In the fall of 2017, Miami New Drama presented Our Town by Thornton Wilder, a work often named one of the great American plays. MND's production marked the first time the Wilder Estate allowed for any altercations to the text as the theatre presented a trilingual version of the story: using English, Spanish, and Creole to tell the story the small New England town and its citizens. This uniquely multicultural take on the American classic granted Miami New Drama its first Knight Arts Grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.

The Album
The Album was the first public presentation of a new project conceived by co-founder Moises Kaufman, Amanda Gronich, and Barbara Pitts McAdams. The show was a collaboration between Miami New Drama and Tectonic Theatre Project, the artists behind acclaimed shows such as The Laramie Project. The two companies came together in the spring of 2018 to tell the story of a haunting photos depicting a vacation retreat for Nazi soldiers employed at Auschwitz and Birkenau.

Cocaine Cowboys
Cocaine Cowboys marks Miami New Drama's second Knight Arts Grant as the company partners with filmmaker Billy Corben to bring to light a new inspired by Corben's acclaimed documentary trilogy by the same name. In collaboration with playwright and South Florida native Aurin Squire, Cocaine Cowboys follows Rivi Ayala, an assassin hired by Griselda Blanco, to uncover the economic and political underpinnings of 1980s Miami and how the violent era has left its mark on modern-day Miami.
