2023 Tony Award®-winner for Best Musical, Kimberly Akimbo is a “howlingly funny heartbreaker” (The New Yorker) with a Tony-winning book by Pulitzer Prize winner David Lindsay-Abaire (Rabbit Hole) and a Tony-winning score by Jeanine Tesori (Fun Home, Caroline, or Change).
The legendary Louise Pitre – who originated the role of Fantine in the Canadian premiere of Les Misérables, Donna in the North American and Broadway premieres of Mamma Mia!, and Edith Piaf in The Angel and the Sparrow at the Segal – stars in this deeply moving and wildly funny musical about a teenager with a rare condition as she navigates family dysfunction, first love, and potential felony charges!

LISA'S NOTE
"If her name is new to you, it won’t be for long. Kimberly Akimbo is a story that lingers in the heart, and there’s no better place to bring it to life than the Segal. After the magic of Titanique, we’re overjoyed to reunite with Mirvish for a musical that will leave you laughing, crying, and thinking long after the final bow."
