Tickets on Sale for Juggerknot Theatre Company's MIAMI MOTEL STORIES

Miami Motel Stories is a real-time immersive theatre experience that takes place inside one of Little Havana's most beautiful and iconic building this October- the Tower Hotel. Built in 1920, this newly-restored boutique hotel has nearly a century of deep-rooted history in the neighborhood, and Juggerknot Theatre Company is telling those stories, inviting guests on a journey of Miami's past, present, and future one room at a time. Tickets for Miami Motel Stories go on sale Tuesday, September 19, 2017.

Three ticket types unlock different experiences at the Tower Hotel. The first floor allows guests to come and go as they wish through 12 hotel rooms. They will meet and mingle with characters from the neighborhood, and get to the heart of Little Havana in an experience through decades of its music, culture, history, and crime. The second floor is designed to be an intimate experience; guests will enter these rooms, two at a time, for a close-up look at the people who lived or stayed in the hotel through time, including jazz icon Billie Holiday, who was a frequent visitor in the 50s.

Three storyline tracks are available, and guests can book their stay by choosing a Blue, Pink, or Yellow key. If they enjoyed their first visit and would like another, different experience, they can come back and purchase a different color key for a different story track. The result will be an interactive theatre experience that will have audiences navigating through Miami's rich, multi- layered narrative. Migration, gentrification, segregation, love, and family feuds - audiences will filter through and watch, as they glide from one room to the next (led by actors), until a picture of the city comes into focus.

With support from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation's Knight Arts Challenge and a partnership with Chivas Regal, HistoryMiami Museum and urban development moguls, The Barlington Group, Juggerknot Theatre will redefine the use of venue space by taking residence in Miami motels to tour audiences through the city's history. Three local playwrights will help to bring the narratives of some of Miami's oldest and emerging neighborhoods to life in a series of three theatrical installments; the first takingplace in Little Havana's Tower Theatre this October, written by Miami playwright, Juan Sanchez, and directed by NYC veteran director, Tamilla Woodward.
"We're building relationships between developers and the artistic community, while highlighting Miami's up and coming neighborhoods. We want to give Miami audiences an opportunity to rediscover their city by telling stories in their historic buildings." says Tanya Bravo, Founder and Artistic Director of Juggerknot Theatre Company.
The work will reflect the undercurrent of history, both real and imagined, bringing artistry, responsible growth, and home-grown craft to Miami's ever-quickening rush to develop.
