I am Miami is a new series of microtheater plays that are part of the award-winning project Macro Directors for Microtheater Miami. I am Miami, written and directed by Spanish director Lucía Miranda, brings the biography of the city to life, with an inside look at its diversity and complexity through its people.

This theater season offers plays in English and Spanish with seven original 15 minute plays presenting, verbatim, real stories of love, immigration, passion, and survival extracted word by word, as told by its protagonists. The plays are performed concurrently, every half hour, eight times per night, inside shipping containers at the Microtheater Miami Patio.
