Toxic is Back! For FREE in the
Park this Summer!
Horizon’s
musical comedy sensation The Toxic Avenger
will be outside in the ATL this summer when it hits Piedmont Park, June 9th through the 12th– and
thousands of FREE tickets will be available to the public beginning May 12. Get ready to experience an Atlanta hit in the
center of our city!
Last summer, Horizon’s sold-out musical Avenue Q was a rollicking fun party in the Park, playing to
thousands who came to picnic, play and watch fantastic professional musical
theatre in Piedmont Park. And it’s
free!” says Lisa Adler, Horizon’s Co-Artistic/Producing Director. “The
Toxic Avenger was another runaway hit for Horizon in our Little Five Points
home this past winter. It’s just so much
fun – upbeat, smart and silly at the same time with a hugely energetic and
talented cast, fantastic rock music and a live band. Everyone leaves smiling every night, so it is
the perfect show to bring together Atlantans in the heart of our city under the
sky and treetops this summer.”
Full of
off-beat humor and an amazing score, The
Toxic Avenger chronicles Melvin Ferd the Third, whose crusade to stop the corrupt
mayor gets him dumped in toxic waste. From the smoke emerges our green, gooey
superhero with mega-strength - The Toxic Avenger, or Toxie for short. He’s
here to save his home town from toxic waste, win the love of the beautiful
blind librarian, stop global warming and bring a brand new day of clean air and
harmony to New Jersey and the world. This tour de force for five powerhouse
actor/singers playing over 30 roles keeps the action spinning as the music
rocks the park.
