Imago Theatre Group is the performance wing of Imago Media Company, known for over 27 years of original stagecraft that blends classical and contemporary themes. It has launched countless emerging actors, directors, and writers. At its core is BJAS Media School, a legacy institute that has trained top industry talent for nearly three decades through a blend of rigorous technique and real-stage experience.
Imago Theatre Group brings to life Sharad Joshi’s iconic political satire Andhon Ka Hathi, a play that uses razor-sharp humor and allegory to critique the fragmented perceptions of truth and authority. Inspired by the ancient parable of the blind men and the elephant, the play follows a group of blind individuals, each interpreting a different part of the elephant and arguing over its true form. Their absurd conflict becomes a powerful metaphor for the way leaders, institutions, and societies often grasp only parts of complex realities—yet claim to understand the whole.
Originally penned during the turbulent political landscape of the 1970s, Joshi’s satire remains deeply relevant today, speaking to the ongoing crises of governance, perception, and truth. With inventive direction by Kaleem Zafar, this production promises a dynamic and engaging theatrical experience, balancing biting commentary with theatrical flair.
Produced by Sanjay & Kulsum Sujitabh, Andhon Ka Hathi is a must-watch for audiences seeking theatre that provokes, entertains, and resonates long after the curtain falls.
Join us on August 17, 2025, for an evening of intelligent satire and unforgettable performance.
Fools is a comic fable by Neil Simon and directed by Kaleem Zafar. It is set in a small village called Gajabganj, where a 200-year-old curse has made everyone in the village unbelievably stupid. The story is about Kabir, a young schoolteacher who arrives in the village. He is determined to teach the people and break the curse.
The original play was set in Ukraine, but we have given it an Indian flavor. We changed the names and the setting to better suit our audience, but the story and dialogues stay exactly the same to keep the original feel.
Will Kabir be able to break the curse, or will he become just like everyone else? Come watch our play to find out!
