THE MOST TONY AWARD-WINNING SHOW OF THE SEASON

KIMBERLY AKIMBO features Tony Award-winning book and lyrics by DAVID LINDSAY-ABAIRE (Rabbit Hole), a Tony Award-winning score by JEANINE TESORI (Fun Home), choreography by DANNY MEFFORD (Dear Evan Hansen) and direction by Tony-nominated director JESSICA STONE (Water for Elephants).

Kimberly (three-time Tony Award nominee CAROLEE CARMELLO) is about to turn 16 and recently moved with her family to a new town in suburban New Jersey. In this “howlingly funny heartbreaker of a show” (The New Yorker), Kim is forced to navigate family dysfunction, a rare genetic condition, her first crush…and possible felony charges. Ever the optimist, she is determined to find happiness against all odds and embark on a great adventure.

So clever, funny and touching, you might want to give everyone on stage a hug. It’s happy-sad heaven. DO NOT MISS IT.” The Hollywood Reporter “BEST THEATER OF THE YEAR. A DOSE OF PURE JOY. Profoundly funny and heartbreaking. The season’s most moving new musical.” The New York Times [Critic's Pick] “THE BEST NEW MUSICAL OF THE YEAR — BY FAR. A wondrous new musical, breathtakingly lovely and riotously funny — as full-hearted as any musical to be seen in recent years.” The Wall Street Journal “A HOWLINGLY FUNNY HEARTBREAKER OF A SHOW.” The New Yorker “IT FEELS LIKE A MIRACLE. I LOVED IT FROM THE FIRST NOTE TO THE LAST. It’s one of those perfect inventions that convinces you that the world isn’t so terrible after all.
