Kimberly Akimbo
SYNOPSIS
Written By
31 August 2024 – 14 September 2024
The year is 1999. Kimberly could be a typical 16 year old, if her life wasn’t anything but
typical. A rare medical condition means her body’s aged 4 times faster than it should. Grey
hair, failing eyesight and forgoing body glitter for anti-wrinkle cream doesn’t quite make you
Miss Popularity. But Kimberly’s about to make a friend. And just maybe her life is going to
change. If only her pregnant Mum could tone down the hypochondria. Hopefully her Dad
will start keeping his word. And with any luck, her aunt’s new scheme won’t blow up in their
faces.
7.30pm 7th September – Auslan interpreted*
2pm 14th September – Relaxed Performance**
