Kimberly is quite different from any other Broadway character because she's a teenager with a body that ages four times as fast due to a genetic condition. Her grim diagnosis comes with a average life expectancy of about 16 years. Despite this poor future, Kimberly remains motivated and optimistic in the days leading up to her 16th birthday. Her coming-of-age story encourages audiences to live fully and make the most of each day. Along for the ride are her parents, her nefarious aunt Debra, and a group of supportive friends. This Broadway show tells the hilarious story of family dysfunction and hijinks with the added emotional aspect of first crushes, mortality, and so much more.

David Lindsay-Abaire first brought Kimberly Akimbo to the stage over a decade ago in 2001 with performances running at the South Coast Repertory, Manhattan Theatre Club, and A Red Orchid Theatre. acclaimed actors have performed both the play and musical adaptations, including Ana Gasteyer, Ann Dowd, John Gallagher Jr., and Victoria Clark.
