Synopsis
Melvin Ferd the Third lives in Tromaville, Exit 13B on the New Jersey Turnpike. He likes Sarah, the blind librarian, and learns from her about the "Good Earth Company" that pollutes the town in collusion with its mayor who also happens to be linked to the company. His attempt to clean up gets foiled by the mayor's minions who dump him into a vat of radioacive waste; he reemerges as "the Toxic Avenger" who with supernatural strength starts to attack the polluters and rips them apart. Meanwhile, Sarah who is unable to discern his gowlish appearance takes a liking to "Toxie". Events come to a head when the mayor tries to kill him by throwing bleach at him. The scheme misfires, Sarah and Toxie get married, and on year later, Toxie becomes governor of a cleaned-up State of New Jersey.
The New York premiere opened at New World Stages, 340 West 50th Street in Manhattan, 1/2 block from Wicked (another green show)on April 6, 2009.

The show opening night cast included Sara Chase, Nick Cordero, Demond Green, Matthew Saldivar and Nancy Opel. Erin Leigh Peck and Nicholas Rodriguez are the original understudies. |
