Josep Maria Miró (Prats de Lluçanès, Barcelona, 1977) is a playwright and theater director from Catalonia. He is known by plays such as Archimedes’ Principle, Nerium Park or The Nicest Body Ever Seen Around These Parts. He writes his plays in Catalan language.
Biography
Josep Maria Miró graduated in Direction and Dramaturgy from the Theater Institute of Barcelona and in Journalism from the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB.)
His plays have been translated into over twenty languages, with approximately 100 world premieres and numerous publications. He has also undertaken various dramaturgies and stage adaptations.
He has directed both his own plays and works by other authors, including El carrer Franklin (Franklin Street) by Lluïsa Cunillé, La voix humaine by Jean Cocteau/ Francis Poulenc, and productions for the series Liturgical Dramas at the Monastery of Santa Maria de l'Estany in 2009, 2010, and 2011.
In 2022, Miró received the Spanish National Dramatic Literature Award, granted by Spanish Ministry of Culture for his play The Nicest Body Ever Seen Around These Parts [1] [2] [3]. In 2020, he won the XLV Theater Born Award for the same text [4], making him the first author in the history of the prestigious award to win it three times (previously in 2011 with Archimedes’ Principle and in 2009 with The Woman Who Always Missed Her Flight). Among his numerous other awards are the Max Award 2019 for Best Theatrical Author for A Nice Place [5], the XIV Rosalía de Castro Award 2022 for his career in Catalan literature, and the Jardiel Poncela Award 2023 for his play The Monster, granted by the Spanish Society of Authors and Publishers SGAE [6].
His play Archimedes’ Principle, with over fifty productions worldwide, has been adapted into film twice: El virus de la por (The Virus of Fear) (2015) by Catalan production company Els Films La Rambla directed by Ventura Pons, and Aos teus olhos (Liquid Truth) (2017) by Brazilian production company Globo directed by Carolina Jabor. It was declared a text of legislative and cultural interest by the Senate of the province of Mendoza ( Argentina) in November 2019.
In 2017, Sala Beckett of Barcelona organized a series dedicated to "The Theatre of Josep Maria Miró," and in 2024, La Abadía theater of Madrid programmed a series of his works under the title "Miro’s Universe." [7] [8]
Starting in 2015-16 academic year, Miró joined the faculty at the ERAM, the undergraduate degree program in Performing Arts at the University of Girona, where he still coordinates the academic section devoted to Dramaturgy. He regularly teaches courses and workshops at the Obrador of Sala Beckett in Barcelona, as well as numerous workshops and seminars, both in Catalonia and abroad. In 2023 he was awarded with a residency in New York City by the Ramon Llull Foundation [9] [10].
