Scripps Ranch Theatre kicks off their Season 46 with "Kimberly Akimbo," written by David Lindsay-Abaire. Directed by Ted Leib. The prospect of dying by age 16 hardly seems like obvious fodder for comedy. This play, which inspired the musical that took Broadway by storm in 2022, is a haunting and hilarious dark comedy that offers theatre at its most wacky and original. "Kimberly Akimbo" tells the story of a girl with a genetic disorder that accelerates her aging process – she’s going on 16, but has the body of someone four times older. "Kimberly Akimbo" manages to ask the big questions about family and mortality in a funny, zany and heartfelt tone. The New York Times called it “the comedy of the year.” The production runs September 26 - October 19 on the campus of Alliant International University. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. There is a preview performance on Friday September 26 at 7:30 p.m.
