Kimberly is unlike any other Broadway protagonist because she's a teenager with a body that ages far quicker than normal due to a genetic condition. Her unfavorable diagnosis comes with a average life expectancy of about 16 years. Despite this undesirable prognosis, Kimberly remains motivated and optimistic, even leading up to her 16th birthday. Her coming-of-age story encourages audiences to live fully and make the most of each day. Along for the ride are her parents, her nefarious aunt Debra, and a group of loyal friends. This Broadway show captures the hilarious story of family dysfunction and hijinks with the added emotional layer of first crushes, mortality, and so much more.
