"A playful and powerful musicalization of Lindsay-Abaire's beloved play about a young girl forced to grow up too fast. Kimberly Akimbo tells the story of a young girl suffering from a rare disease similar to progeria that causes her to age four times faster than her high school peers. Surrounded by a deeply neurotic and dysfunctional family, Kimberly must also emotionally age at an accelerated rate. When she meets fellow misfit Seth, the two form an unlikely bond in the midst of social alienation. Written with composer Jeanine Tesori, Lindsay-Abaire's musical adaptation of his beloved play retains the original's quirky charm while deepening its emotional resonance"-- Provided by publisher.
