Description
After you’ve admired the black-light artwork and intimate setting of the Briar Street Theatre, find your seat and prepare for the rise of the curtain. Fueled by technological advances, this recently revamped show incorporates the "GiPad", a giant tablet that communicates with the silent trio.
Three bald, blue men lead you through a captivating multimedia journey filled with euphoric drumming, neon lighting, and paint splattering. Gladly follow them from the funny and intelligent to the riveting and thought-provoking. Equal parts innovative musical performance and introspective peeks into fast-paced philosophies, Blue Man Group celebrates culture, comedy, and, of course, the color blue.
