Hampstead Theatre is a London venue in South Hampstead, Camden, dedicated to commissioning and producing new writing and nurturing emerging writers.
The Hampstead Theatre hosts the UK premiere of Kimberly Akimbo, a musical about a teenage girl aging four times faster than her peers. Maria Friedman embodies Kimberly with warmth and verve, as Tesori and Lindsay-Abaire balance comedy with a life-shortening truth. The show navigates family chaos, memorable songs, and a story that remains buoyant despite its gravity.
