The Toxic Avenger Cleans Up Denver

Winner of the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off-Broadway Musical, “The Toxic Avenger” is a charming love story and laugh-out-loud musical that has it all — an unlikely hero, his beautiful girlfriend, a corrupt New Jersey mayor and two guys who play… well, everyone else … bullies, mobsters, old ladies, and stiletto-wearing back-up singers, plus the show also features the most memorable and unbelievable duet you’ll ever see on any stage.

Melvin Ferd the Third wants to clean up Tromaville, the most polluted town in New Jersey. Foiled by the mayor’s bullies, Melvin is dumped into a vat of radioactive toxic waste, only to reemerge as The Toxic Avenger, New Jersey’s first superhero. Affectionately known as Toxie, our new hero is a seven-foot mutant freak with superhuman strength who is out to save New Jersey, end global warming, and woo the blind librarian in town.

“’The Toxic Avenger Musical’ is born of a cult classic movie, and playfully mocks the cheesy humor of the film, while still enthralling the audience with Broadway-quality music and theatrics,” offers Colin Roybal, Director. “It's a ‘monster’ of a musical, and will keep the audience laughing throughout.”
