Mironoff Theatre Works is an enterprise dedicated to creating original theatrical pieces drawn from life and literature. The plays strive to illuminate various aspects of the sad state of affairs we know as "the human condition" with action set in diverse locales such as Russia, Bohemia, the British isles and the American South, and across periods, ranging from B.C. to the present day.


Hana Mironoff studied prose and dramatic writing at the University of Arkansas and has been an active member of the Arkansas Playwrights’ Workshop since its inception in 2002. In 2009 and 2011 Hana’s plays, Gullibea and Adventures in the Skin Trade, were produced in New York by Love Creek Productions. In 2010 The Open Door was produced by the Manhattan Theatre Source at its Estrogenius Festival. In 2011 she was selected to attend a workshop, sponsored by the Eudora Welty Foundation and conducted by Alfred Uhry. Her adaptation of Welty’s story, The Wide Net, was subsequently read at the New Stage Theatre in Jackson, MS. In March 2012, Dance of the Mayflies was produced by the Benton County School of the Arts. In October 2013, R.U.R. Redux was produced by Bentonville High School. She is co-author with Alex Mironoff of Much Ado About Willie, which received a public reading at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival as part of its 2015 Southern Writers’ Project. Several of her plays have received staged public readings at the Fayetteville Public Library, on the U of A campus, at the Fayetteville Arts Festival, and at other local venues.



Alex Mironoff is a graduate of Harvard University where he studied language and literature. His short stories, essays and translations of poetry have appeared in various national publications. He has participated with Hana in the Arkansas Playwrights’ Workshop from its founding in 2002, creating satirical one act plays. In 2014 he co-authored Much Ado About Willie with Hana Mironoff. Willie was one of four plays selected for further development and a public reading in conjunction with the Alabama Shakespeare Festival’s 2015 Southern Writers’ Project. Alex’s Best Thanksgiving was a finalist in Australia’s “Short ‘n Sweet” competition. His short plays have received staged public readings at the Fayetteville Arts Festival, the Fayetteville Public Library and other local venues.
