Founded in 1979 by Carol Triffle and Jerry Mouawad, Imago Theatre's original productions have toured internationally for over two decades. Imago's signature work FROGZ appeared at the acclaimed New Victory Theater on Broadway twice, in 2000 and 2002. Working out of a large 18,000 square foot theatre laboratory in Portland, Oregon, Imago's ensemble of actors, dancers, designers, fabricators and musicians become alchemists seeking fresh perspectives of performance. Ms Triffle studied extensively with Mr. Lecoq completing his exclusive pedagogical program. Drawing inspiration from Mr. Lecoq, Imago Theatre aims to place form and design at the forefront of theatre creation and infuses each production with an idiosyncratic physical energy. In 2006, the company's innovative production of Jean-Paul Sartre's No Exit ran at two Tony-Award winning theatres - American Repertory Theater and The Hartford Stage Company. The United States premiere of Caryl Churchill's A Number was produced by Imago Theatre in 2003.
