This touring production of the 2023 Tony Award winner for Best Musical, KIMBERLY AKIMBO, is based on David Lindsay-Abaire’s play of the same name. Kimberly, about to turn 16, has just moved with her family to a quiet suburb in New Jersey.

The national tour of Kimberly Akimbo has released a video of Ann Morrison performing 'Make A Wish.' She recently took on the role in the touring company of the Tony-winning musical after Carolee Carmello took her final bow.

Marcus Phillips will assume the role of Seth in the National Tour of KIMBERLY AKIMBO. Learn more about the new cast members in the tour and see how to purchase tickets!

Casting has been announced and tickets are on sale for Starring Buffalo’s Young Frankenstein, October 2-4 at Shea’s 710 Theatre in downtown Buffalo, NY.

Offerings of the musical theater cover a vast array of topics.  There is the tale of the young prince who wants to find his “Corner of the sky” (PIPPIN), the flower girl who wants to be a lady (MY FAIR LADY), and the dairy man who has a life ruled by tradition (FIDDLER ON THE ROOF).

The national tour of Kimberly Akimbo, the five-time Tony Award-winning musical, opened this week at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Minneapolis — and it is, quite simply, a triumph of storytelling.

'I suppose it's like the ticking crocodile, isn't it? Time is chasing after all of us.' One of my favorite quotes from Peter Pan and it fits so well with this particular story. Kimberly Akimbo teaches a unique lesson about time and aging. 

Starring Buffalo will present Broadway at the Brewery, a summer cabaret featuring Broadway and Buffalo talent at Wayland Brewing Company on July 23. The intimate concert will take place in the private event room at Wayland Brewing Company (3740 N Buffalo Road), with doors opening at 6:30pm.

Ann Morrison will lead the National Tour of Kimberly Akimbo, in the title role, beginning next month. Morrison will join the cast starting next month in Cleveland.

KIMBERLY AKIMBO is as oddball of a musical as its name.

The Tony Award-winning musical KIMBERLY AKIMBO, is now playing at the CIBC Theatre (18 W. Monroe St.) for a limited engagement through June 22 only. KIMBERLY AKIMBO is the most critically acclaimed musical of its Broadway season and winner of five 2023 Tony Awards.

Chances are Seth Weetis, the anagram-obsessed friend in KIMBERLY AKIMBO, would have a field day with the show’s title. The two-act musical opened June 3 and runs through June 8 at the Ohio Theatre.

DC theatre audiences are blessed because besides there being a huge wealth of local theatres, there are also places like the historic National Theatre that bring us national tours direct from Broadway. It’s current attraction is one of the best tours I’ve seen in a very long time.

Based on David Lindsay-Abaire’s 2001 stage play of the same name, Kimberly Akimbo follows a bright and funny teenage girl from New Jersey who happens to look like a 72-year-old lady. However, her aging disease may be the least of her problems. Forced to maneuver family secrets, borderline personalities, and possible felony charges, Kim is determined to find happiness in a world where not even time is on her side.

Individual tickets for KIMBERLY AKIMBO, winner of five 2023 Tony Awards including BEST MUSICAL, will go on sale starting Tuesday, April 8. Learn more about the production and see how to purchase tickets.

One of the oddest dramedies in recent history is also one of the most satisfyingly heartfelt.

What did our critic think of KIMBERLY AKIMBO at Aronoff Center?

KIMBERLY AKIMBO is Coming to The Fabulous Fox Theatre this spring! The tour stars three-time Tony Award nominee Carolee Carmel, and more! Learn how to purchase tickets.

Winner of 5 Tony Awards including Best Musical, this quirky musical comedy with an intentionally-diffused serious undertone continues performances at Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa through February 2, 2025. A generally entertaining show with lots of laughs in spite of its title character’s fatal ailment, KIMBERL AKIMBO is a thematically zig-zagging new musical that is at once intentionally endearing but also surprisingly (and amusingly) chaotic. The show is ultimately winning thanks mostly to the wonderful performances of its two leads, three-time Tony Award nominee Carolee Carmello and her adorable co-star Miguel Gil.
