Photo Coverage: Exclusive Look at THE TOXIC AVENGER at Arts Theatre

The acclaimed rock musical 'The Toxic Avenger The Musical' opened at the Arts Theatre for a strictly limited 10-week season from Thursday 28 September.

Based on Lloyd Kaufman's cult 1984 comedy schlock-horror Troma film, "The Toxic Avenger", 'The Toxic Avenger The Musical' tells the story of the citizens of Tromaville, who are crying out for a hero... Enter nerdy Melvin Ferd the Third, an aspiring earth scientist, determined to clean up the state's major toxic waste problem. When a corrupt Mayor and her government goons get wind of his plans, they vow to stop this heroic feat. Melvin is attacked and tossed into a vat of toxic waste... transforming him instantly into The Toxic Avenger, New Jersey's first superhero!

Toxie is a 7-foot mutant freak with superhuman strength and a supersized heart to match. He's out to save heavily polluted New Jersey, end global warming, win the heart of the prettiest (blindest) librarian in town and get home in time for dinner!

Prepare to laugh, scream and sing to songs including 'Who Will Save New Jersey?" "Get the Geek", "Thank God She's Blind" "Hot Toxic Love" and "Choose Me, Oprah!" as 'Toxie' rocks the house and saves the day!

Joining Mark Anderson, who returns after starring to great acclaim as Melvin/Toxie in the original London production, are: Natalie Hope, Emma Salvo,Oscar Conlon-Morrey and Ché Francis with Peter Bindloss and Sophia Lewis as swings/understudies.
