Written by David Lindsay-Abaire, this play follows Kimberly, a 15-year-old girl aging at more than four times the average rate, who is nearing the end of her life expectancy while navigating a dysfunctional family and a first love with Jeff, a nerdy sophomore who loves anagrams. Her father is rarely sober, her mother is a pregnant hypochondriac, and her aunt is a con-artist who ensnares Kimberly's classmates in her schemes. The cast includes Spencer Kayden as Kimberly, Ben Primas as Jeff, Sallie Eskin as Debra, Erin Rose, and Patrick Peterson, with Michael Hovance directing. The play is described as zany and warm-hearted, offering a touching perspective on mortality, youthful joy, and the absurdity of life.
