About the Show

A worldwide phenomenon where comedy, music, and paint collide in a circus of the imagination.

With origins in circus, Blue Man Group uses nonverbal performance paired with rhythm and drumming (and lots of paint), visuals, large and small scale audience participation, comedy, technology and marshmallows to create a high octane, colorful performance that is difficult to categorize.

The Blue Man Group has performed in 25 countries to rave reviews.

The show has been a staple of Off-Broadway for over 30 years. It opened at the Astor Place Theatre in 1991 and has played over 16,000 performances.

See it if You can’t get other tickets

Don't see it if You want something more interesting

Overrated, Indulgent, Ambitious, Disappointing, Dizzying

See it if You enjoy noise and Las Vegas style shows. These men are very talented at what they do.

Don't see it if You treasure your hearing.

Quirky, Slow, Overrated, Excruciating, Disappointing

See it if You like hype with no substance. Have no idea why this is popular.

Don't see it if You value your time.

Disappointing, Excruciating, Insipid, Overrated, Slow

See it if you are ok with being bored

Don't see it if you want something interesting, thought provoking or intelligent

Not green, Needs makeover, 8 & 13-yr olds hated it, Boring, Dated

See it if you have no other options

Don't see it if you're seeking innovative, imaginative performance. Stuck in 1992 (and not in a good way.) This is tired and is desperate need of a makeover

Slow, Overrated, Excruciating, Disappointing, Confusing

See it if You like a concert-type show at deafening volume.

Don't see it if You want a show with a storyline, comedy, or coherence. Don't see if you like your hearing. Don't see if you like getting value for money.
