IMAGINACTION is a bold, soulful stage production that premiered at the Big Idea Platform 2025, themed: Brain Health and Mental Well-being.

Rooted in the Nigerian experience, the play explores how constant exposure to dysfunction, corruption, insecurity, poverty, and broken systems, can wear down the human spirit, leading to hopelessness, and emotional fatigue.

But instead of dwelling in despair, IMAGINACTION dares to imagine something different. It asks: What if communities could turn their collective frustration into fuel for change?

Using humour, music, powerful storytelling, and relatable characters, the production takes audiences on a journey from helplessness to agency. It captures the psychological toll of societal stagnation, but also highlights how imagination paired with collective action can be a radical act of healing. From grassroots organizing to reclaiming public spaces, supporting women, prioritizing education, and reviving trust in community, the play, directed by Joshua Alabi uplifts examples of innovation rooted in empathy, inclusion, and shared responsibility.
