Kimberley Akimbo Auditions- August 3rd, 2 pm @ the Perry

Set in the wilds of suburban New Jersey, KIMBERLY AKIMBO is a hilarious and heartrending play about a teenager with a rare condition causing her body to age faster than it should. When she and her family flee Secaucus under dubious circumstances, Kimberly is forced to reevaluate her life while contending with a hypochondriac mother, a rarely sober father, a scam-artist aunt, her own mortality and, most terrifying of all, the possibility of first love.

Characters:

KIMBERLY, a 16-year-old girl, played by a woman in her 60s or 70s

BUDDY, a man in his mid-30s, Kimberly’s dad

PATTIE, a very pregnant woman in her mid-30s, Buddy’s wife

JEFF, an awkward, unpopular 16-year-old boy

DEBRA, a woman in her early 30s, an ex-con, Pattie’s sister
