Miami

Theatre entertainment in Miami

  1. A

    Coconut Grove Playhouse

    This lovely state-owned theater, anchoring the Grove since 1956, gained fame via the American premiere of Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot (which audiences and critics generally rejected out of hand as opaque and confusing). Although it was closed during research due to debt issues, it is set to reopen by the time you read this, and will hopefully continue to showcase some of Miami’s best theater.

  2. B

    New Theatre

    This strong Coral Gables company performs an eclectic mix of contemporary pieces and modern classics that fall squarely between the conventional and alternative. You’ll be up close and personal with the actors since there are only 70 seats in the house.

  3. C

    Edge Theater

    The Edge stays true to its name (and Design District locale) by putting on consistently contemporary, artfully imagined productions on a small stage that feels like a makeshift living room filled with props.

  4. D

    Café Nostalgia

    Come here to drink sangria and watch old-school crooners get melodramatic on a vintage stage. Sure it’s cheesy, but that’s the point (look at the name of the place).
