New Jersey's first superhero takes the stage in this rock 'n' roll monster of a musical comedy. Thrown into a vat of toxic goo by two bullies, a mild-mannered science student named Melvin Ferd the Third is reborn as a one-of-a-kind environmental crusader: The Toxic Avenger. Armed with superhuman strength and a heart as big as Newark, he's out to save New Jersey, end global warming and woo the prettiest, blindest librarian in town. He'll leave you laughing as he rocks the house and saves the Earth for all mankind.  Based on the 1985 cult film classic, this CD features music and lyrics by David Bryan (keyboardist and founding member of Bon Jovi), book and lyrics by Joe DiPietro (I Love You, You re Perfect, Now Change) and musical direction by Tony Award-winner John Rando (Urinetown).  It delivers a heady dose of humor that leaves listeners with a big green glow.
