Imogen is cast as Tazz, a leading part in Back in the Day a short story play by Yasmeen Khan.
Synopsis A group of classmates are responsible for being their school’s well-being champions. In a freak occurrence, they are transported back to the ’80s via an impromptu and heavily improvised roller disco.

Curtain up: The cast with Tazz at the front appeared to loud applause.
The play was wonderfully led by Tazz as her classmates enjoyed a journey into past lives of their family with tragic and funny scenes. The roller skating storyline was hilarious. Well done Yasmeen Khan.

Imogen was exceptionally good, A natural talent in acting. There were tears in our eyes. The rest of the cast also remarkable and deservingly received a standing ovation at the curtain call.

We congratulated her and showered her with flowers. Can’t wait to see her next project.
