Fans of Little Shop of Horrors and Avenue Q are in for a treat this September when the cult comedy musical The Toxic Avenger hits the stage of a Lancashire theatre.
Opening at Chorley Theatre on 9th September for six nights only, it's a toxic love story with an environmental twist and lots of jokes and catchy tunes. Based on the cult 1980s film of the same name, it sees mild-mannered nerd Melvin Ferd III campaign against the pollution of the town's water supply.
When the corrupt Mayor has him thrown into a radioactive pipe, Melvin is transformed into a hero for our times! Can Toxie, a seven-foot tall mutant, save New Jersey, end global warming... and win the heart of Sarah, the blind librarian?
Strictly for adults, this fast-paced comedy features 5 actors sharing dozen of roles, with Chris King making quick-fire changes between Melvin and Toxie; Orna Horton-Murphy as Sarah; Jack Vardy and Kieran Smith as Dudes; and Jade Hiatt's evil mayor duetting with herself.
Featuring songs such as "Evil is Hot", "You Tore My Heart Out", and "All Men Are Freaks" this show has been thrilling fans since it's 2009 debut won the Critics Award for Best Off-Broadway Musical. Having played all across the world this is a rare chance to catch it in the UK.
