Confessions of a Cocaine Cowboy

An appropriately maximalist, larger-than-life production about a larger-than-life sociopath, Miami New Drama’s ambitious and flavorful world premiere brought fresh theatricality to the familiar story of Miami’s drug war, and the killers, cops and families caught in its crosshairs. The coup de grace: Yancey Arias played the title character as chummy and scarily charming, so that his audience—us—were not so much his jurors as his co-conspirators.
