About Wynwood Stories
An immersive real-time Theatre experience telling the history of one of Miami’s most iconic neighborhoods
Immerse yourself in to the personal stories of the people who lived, worked, and made significant contributions to Wynwood – and her ever-changing landscape.
“During our time in Wynwood, we have been fascinated by the rich history and unique characters who impacted the trajectory of this special neighborhood's evolution. Now, during this moment of rapid change, it's the perfect time to reveal, illuminate, and celebrate the pivotal moments that conspired to make Wynwood such an inspiring and complex phenomenon. And who better to tell this story than the most brilliant storytellers in our city Juggerknot Theatre Company. When I first had the honor of experiencing Miami Motel Stories in Little Havana, I was blown away by use of hyper-local immersive theater as a compelling and groundbreaking lens into Miami's vibrant history. Though our time in Wynwood was borrowed, this neighborhood has become deeply beloved by our whole team, and we couldn't be more honored to host this notable cultural experience at The Yard.”
