Summary

A Tony-winning musical about a teenage girl who ages four times faster than normal, landing in London with a darkly quirky, deeply moving twist. Played by veteran actress Maria Friedman at 66, she embodies the emotional core of Kimberly’s struggle — a kid trapped in an old body, navigating teen chaos and family dysfunction. But it’s not all heavy: her bucket-list adventure with a tuba-playing Hobbit fan turns into a tearjerker with heart, leaving audiences uplifted. Running until November 7th, this is a rare gem that finds joy even when time’s running out. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
