        CLEVE REVIEW:
       Cain Park Spends
        the Summer With
Memorable Musical Mutant
*     'The Toxic Avenger'*


This chaotically charismatic production is directed and choreographed by
Nathan Motta. Along with his masterful musical director Jordan Cooper, the
pair have brought this unlikely love story/action thriller to life in the
open air theatre at Cain Park.


Motta has also populated the play with some of the finest actors in the
area. Ellis C. Dawson III is more than up to the challenge of playing the
dual role of  Melvin/Toxie, never losing his inner humanity even after
gaining a deformed green exterior. Natalie Green is intoxicating as his
love interest Sarah, seamlessly combining silly and sexy as the sightless
bookworm.


The rest of the residents from Tromaville are impressively portrayed by a
quirky quintet of talents. Kate Michalski impressively tackles several
distinctly different characters, sometimes in the same scene. Malik Akil,
Mariah Burks, Trey Gilpin, and Codie Higer also excel in multiple roles.
Johnathon L. Jackson and Sidney Perelman serve as understudies...
