English Only

Sunday, Feb 15, 2026 at 12:00 AM - English

A battle over language that reshaped a city. Miami New Drama presents the World Premiere of English Only from January 29 to February 22, 2026, at the Colony Theatre. This is a gripping portrait of Miami at a cultural and political breaking point. 

Show video >>

Set in 1980 Miami, the theatrical production of English Only unfolds in the turbulent aftermath of the Mariel Boatlift, when more than 125,000 Cuban refugees arrived on South Florida’s shores, reshaping the region overnight and igniting a fierce political battle over identity, language, and belonging. As tensions mounted, a grassroots movement emerged to make English the county’s sole official language, sparking a heated showdown with activists fighting to preserve Miami-Dade’s bilingual future. The newly formed grassroots group, Citizens of Dade United, led by Emmy Shafer, launched a campaign designed to end the county’s official bilingual policies and remove Spanish from government documents, communications, and civic life. Standing in opposition was young attorney Manny Diaz of the Spanish American League Against Discrimination, who recognized that this was not just a symbolic gesture but a direct attempt to reshape political power, civil rights, and the identity of a city transformed by immigration and fear.

English Only is the first theatrical work to dramatize a ballot initiative to remove Spanish as the official language, offering a gripping, human portrait of a city at a crossroads. As Miami reemerges at the forefront of national conversations, the moment feels especially meaningful. “This is a story about power, fear, and the fight to be heard,” says Nicholas Griffin, journalist, author, and playwright whose work, including Dangerous Days, has long explored the forces that shape Miami. When Miami New Drama’s artistic director, Michel Hausmann, came to Griffin, he was immediately attracted to the idea. “The debates at the heart of English Only are not relics of the past. They are the very conversations shaping Miami today,” says Michel Hausmann. “The chance to illuminate a defining moment in Miami’s history, with all its tension and humanity, was impossible to pass up.”  

The remarkable cast bringing English Only to life on the Colony Theatre stage is led by Andhy Mendez as Manny Diaz; the ensemble also features Rene Granado, Carmen Pelaez, Linda Mugleston, and Laura Faye Smith as Emmy Shafer, along with an outstanding supporting company. Together, this group of actors delivers depth and emotional clarity to Nicholas Griffin’s world premiere, creating performances that feel both intimate and urgently of the moment.

This production continues the Miami History series that Miami New Drama has undertaken in recent years, which brings pivotal moments from our community to the stage, including Elián, Dangerous Days, and Confessions of a Cocaine Cowboy.
 
WHEN: Dates: January 29 - February 22, 2026

SHOW DATE & TIMES: Thursday - Saturday at 8 p.m., Sunday at 3 p.m.
