Imagine This was last seen in London at The New London Theatre in 2008 where it closed after just two weeks of previews and a month of regular performances. It received a fairly negative response from the critics but fared better with audiences, which saw it nominated for four What’s On Stage Awards.
Poland 1942. Where freedom was found through imagination. Where hope and laughter could conquer fear. Where love knew no boundaries.
Imagine This follows a group of actors in the Warsaw Ghetto as they stage a play to inspire hope within their community. However, with rumours of a Final Solution in the air, their play merges with the reality they are trying to escape and a dramatic love story unfolds.
Imagine This is a story about ordinary people – brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers – facing impossible choices and making heroic decisions.
For the first time in nearly a decade, Imagine This returns to London and is at The Union Theatre 25th October – 18th November 2017.
