Bus to Broadway: Kimberly Akimbo

Sunday, May 4, Durham Performing Arts Center

Take the Bus to Broadway to a matinee production of “Kimberly Akimbo” at Durham Performing Arts Center in Durham, N.C.. The winner of five Tony Awards including Best Musical, “Kimberly Akimbo” is a story about growing up and growing old (in no particular order). Kimberly is about to turn 16 and recently moved with her family to a new town in suburban New Jersey. In this howlingly funny heartbreaker of a show, Kim is forced to navigate family dysfunction, a rare genetic condition, her first crush… and possible felony charges. Ever the optimist, she is determined to find happiness against all odds and embark on a great adventure.  The van will depart from Piedmont Arts at 11:30 a.m. for a 2 p.m. performance. The van will return to Piedmont Arts immediately following the performance. Tickets are $180 per person. A boxed lunch is available for $10 and must be ordered in advance. Purchase tickets at PiedmontArts.org.
