Kimberly is different to any other Broadway character because she's a teenager that ages four times as fast due to a genetic condition. Her unfavorable diagnosis comes with a short life expectancy, of sadly as little as 16 years. Despite this undesirable prognosis, Kimberly remains driven and optimistic, even leading up to her 16th birthday. Her coming-of-age story inspires audiences to live fully and with no regrets. Along for the ride are her parents, her nefarious aunt Debra, and a group of supportive friends. This Broadway show tells the hilarious story of family dysfunction and hijinks with the added emotional layer of first crushes, mortality, and moving on.
