Want to deal with an extremely rare disease that forces sufferers to endure
adolescence and aging simultaneously? This is sixteen-year-old Kimberly’s
fate.

*Kimberly Akimbo*, the Tony Award-winning musical now at Playhouse Square,
shares a comically exaggerated look at poor Kimberly’s life as a “not
typical teenager.” (Most people with her premature aging condition don’t
make it past sixteen years old.) With book and lyrics by David
Lindsay-Abaire, score by Jeanine Tesori, choreography by Danny Mefford, and
direction by Jessica Stone, it ticks all the boxes for traditional Broadway
success.
