Kimberly Levaco should be looking forward to celebrating her sweet sixteenth birthday. There's just one complication: due to a rare genetic condition, she looks decades older than she really is.
When her family suddenly relocates under mysterious circumstances, Kimberly finds herself starting over and struggling to fit in. But everything changes when she meets Seth, an awkward but kind-hearted classmate who helps her imagine a future filled with possibility.
As Kimberly navigates teenage life, family chaos and first love, the arrival of her ex-con aunt sparks a wild adventure involving a questionable scheme, unlikely friendships and a chance to finally embrace life on her own terms.
Brimming with humour, heart and unforgettable music, Kimberly Akimbo is a moving coming-of-age story that celebrates individuality, resilience and making the most of every moment.
Created by Pulitzer Prize winner David Lindsay-Abaire and Tony Award-winning composer Jeanine Tesori, this acclaimed musical has captured audiences on Broadway and now makes its London debut in a brand-new production directed by Michael Longhurst.
