A show with no verbal communication, the Blue Man Group combines rock music and comedy with their performers painted blue. The Blue Man Group has been a part of New York since 1987. They have featured on shows such as Arrested Development and Scrubs, with interactive performances that involve the audience. The Blue Men use unique instruments and substances like foam for a performance that is both messy and musical. Don't say we didn't warn you!
Note: Producers can not guarantee the appearance of any particular artist, which is always subject to illness and holidays.

My jacket was completely soiled at the event, as only the first rows had plastic protection. I was sitting directly behind them and had no protection.
