Photo Coverage: The Cast Of 'TOXIC AVENGER' Sample Serendipity 3's 'The Hot Toxic Love Sundae'

Serendipity 3, the landmark NYC dessert emporium teamed with the Off-Broadway hit, The Toxic Avenger, to create a sundae "so toxically delicious it will turn you green with envy - The Hot Toxic Love Sundae!"

On Thursday, September 3rd, cast 'Toxic Avenger' cast members Nancy Opel, Diana DeGarmo and Jonathan Root visited Serendipity 3, 225 East 60th Street (between 2nd and 3rd Avenues) to sample the "dangerous delight" and BroadwayWorld.com's cameras were there.

The Toxic Avenger is both a charming love story and laugh-out-loud musical-- complete with an unlikely hero, his beautiful girlfriend (a blind librarian and aspiring novelist), a corrupt New Jersey mayor and the most memorable and unbelievable duet you'll see on any New York stage! Audiences from teenagers to senior citizens have enthusiastically embraced this hilarious new musical comedy.

Based on the 1985 classic cult film from Troma Studios, The Toxic Avenger 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 is directed by Tony Award® winner John Rando. The cast includes Nick Cordero, Diana DeGarmo, Demond Green, Nancy Opel and Jonathan Root. Erin Leigh Peck and Jason Wooten are also featured as covers for all of the female and male roles in the production.
