Soon this “Great Adventure” will be experienced across North America! It was announced today that the critically-acclaimed new Broadway musical, Kimberly Akimbo, will launch a national tour at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts in September 2024. The 75-week tour will play 60 cities across North America. Casting, exact dates, and additional cities will be announced on a later date.
“Kimberly Akimbo is the kind of Broadway musical our audiences love – smart, contemporary musical theater with lots of laughs and an original, heartfelt story,” said John Ekeberg, Executive Director of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts’ Broadway and Cabaret divisions. “We know Denver audiences will embrace the show as much as New York has and we’re beyond excited to kick off the Great Adventure of Kimberly’s National Tour for audiences across the country.”
Now on Broadway at the Booth Theatre, Tony Award winner Victoria Clark (The Light in the Piazza, Gigi) leads the company of Kimberly Akimbo as the titular role, alongside Justin Cooley, Tony Award nominee Steven Boyer (Hand to God, Time and the Conways), Alli Mauzey (Cry Baby, Wicked), Bonnie Milligan (Head Over Heels), Olivia Elease Hardy, Fernell Hogan (The Prom, Mean Girls US Tour), Michael Iskander, and Nina White.
Kim is 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.
