looks like a 72-year-old woman. More than 20 years later, Lindsay-Abaire has teamed up with composer Jeanine Tesori to turn “Kimberly Akimbo” into an off-kilter, small but mighty musical.
“Kimberly Akimbo” is set in Bergen County, New Jersey circa 1999. Appropriately, the show’s poster art is a direct takeoff of the rainbow logo for Six Flags Great Adventure that was once ubiquitous in the tristate area. Great Adventure itself is also featured in the show. At the start of the musical, the family has just moved to a new town following an undisclosed traumatic incident in Lodi. At her new high school, Kimberly makes friends with a sweet, anagram-obsessed young man who also comes from a broken home, and her aunt recruits a quartet of show choir geeks to take part in a check fraud scam.
