After beginning performances November 6, the world premiere of David Lindsay-Abaire and Jeanine Tesori's Kimberly Akimbo is set to officially open with the Atlantic Theater Company December 8.

Based on the eponymous play by Lindsay-Abaire, Kimberly Akimbo follows Kim, a bright and funny Jersey teen, who happens to look like a 72-year-old lady. And yet 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.

Kimberly Akimbo features a book and lyrics by Pulitzer Prize winner Lindsay-Abaire, music by Tony winner Tesori, choreography by Danny Mefford, and direction by Jessica Stone.
