Kimberly Akimbo at Knight Theatre

Right out of the groundbreaking minds of David Lindsay Abaire and Jeanine Tesori comes Kimberly Akimbo, a Broadway show that takes audiences through many different emotions, from laughter and joy to sorrow and hopefulness. Audiences who attend the upcoming performance at Knight Theatre at Levine Center for the Arts on Wednesday 23rd April 2025 will spend the 2-hour and 25-minute runtime in Kimberly Levaco's world. Tickets start at just $92 for this Wednesday showing and remember seating is limited.

Kimberly is unlike any other Broadway protagonist because she's a teenager that ages far quicker than normal due to a genetic condition. Her grim diagnosis comes with a short life expectancy, of sadly as little as 16 years. Despite this poor outlook, Kimberly remains driven and optimistic, even leading up to her milestone birthday. Her coming-of-age story encourages audiences to live fully and make the most of each day. Joining Kimberly on her adventure are her parents, her nefarious aunt Debra, and a group of loyal friends. This Broadway show captures the hilarious story of family dysfunction and comical escapades with the added emotional layer of first crushes, mortality, and so much more. 

You may already have heard of this story because entertainers have already played it out on stage. David Lindsay-Abaire first brought Kimberly Akimbo to the stage in 2001 with performances running at numerous theatres across the country. Celebrated actors have been a part of both the play and musical adaptations, including Ana Gasteyer, Ann Dowd, John Gallagher Jr., and Victoria Clark. 

Since adapting into a musical, Kimberly Akimbo has seen widespread success with acclaim from critics. The Off-Broadway production snagged wins at the Drama Desk Awards, Outer Critics Circle Awards, and New York Drama Critics' Circle, while the Broadway show was a five-time winner at the 2023 Tony Awards. The Original Broadway Cast also earned a Grammy nomination for the show's catchy soundtrack.
