Blue Man Group at Charles Playhouse

Why see Blue Man Group?

Boston's Greatest Night Out

Like nothing you've ever seen, the performance art troupe the Blue Man Group emerged in the early 90s with their thrillingly inventive concoction of vaudeville, live music, slapstick and cutting edge technology, and have since conquered the world. You find permanent Blue Man Group productions all over the world, including right here in Boston, where they've been dazzling audiences since 1995.

What is the show about?

As if they landed on earth from another planet (we're not betting against it), the Blue Men don't speak, yet are infinitely curious about the human race and our world. They delve wholeheartedly into exploring technology and our uniquely human eccentricities through a glorious mash-up of dance, music and performance. The show is constantly changing, so describing exactly what to expect is tricky - in the past, one of the group's signature set-pieces for this Boston production has been a drumming sequence involving gallons of luminous paint. Also expect plenty of audience participation!

Did You Know?

As well as Boston, the Blue Men have resident productions in New York, Chicago, Orlando, Berlin, and Las Vegas, in addition to a worldwide tour - that's a whole lot of blue paint!

Amazing!!!

We had a blast! The cast is just incredibly talented. The show is interactive so definitely a great idea to bring your older kids. We had a great view sitting in the orchestra level. The Meet and greet with the BMG was a treat after the show. Thanks again for a fun night! ... Read more
