The Toxic Avenger at 5th Wall Theatre

The Toxic Avenger
Book & lyrics by Joe DiPietro, Music & lyrics by David Bryan
July 7 – 30, 2017
Based on Lloyd Kaufman’s cult film, The Toxic Avenger, and 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. With book and lyrics by Joe DiPietro and music and lyrics by David Bryan, the show also features the most memorable and unbelievable duet you’ll ever see on any stage. It’s a toxic love story with an environmental twist! The Toxic Avenger will leave audiences laughing in the aisles as it rocks the house. Featuring a wailin’ rock score, this comical musical has something for everyone to enjoy.

Performances for Toxic Avenger are at The Basement, 300 E. Broad Street in RVA’s Downtown. Talkbacks will follow select performances. Tickets are $32 (Students - $15; group rates available) and can be purchased by visiting www.5thWallTheatre.org.
