Following a 2011 smash hit opening engagement in Atlanta, BLUE MAN GROUP returns to the Fox Theatre January 15 -20 and tickets are on sale now. 

Although BLUE MAN GROUP has toured previously with its Megastar arena rock show, this marks the first theatrical production to tour North America.  The theatrical tour features classic Blue Man moments as well as brand new content.  The sound, set, and video design for this tour centers around a proscenium-sized LED curtain and high-resolution screen create an entirely new, high-impact visual experience for Broadway houses across the nation.

Tickets range from $25 - $65 and are on sale now at www.FoxATLTix.com or by calling 855-ATL-TIXX (855-285-8499).  Special group rates for 10 or more are available by calling 404-881-2000, emailing foxgroup@foxtheatre.org or on-line at www.foxtheatre.org/groupsales.aspx.   Half-price tickets are available for the Tuesday and Wednesday performances by using the code “AJC.

BLUE MAN GROUP has received praise from critics across the country.  The Baltimore Sun raves, “Blue Man Group packs a wallop.  It’s a big, loud, funny, silly, visually arresting production!”  The Charlotte Observer says BLUE MAN GROUP is “a hugely entertaining show for anyone ages 9 to 90.”  The San Antonio Express-News proclaims it’s “an exhilarating, thought-provoking, laugh-yourself-silly evening of percussion-heavy rock music, comedy and playful commentary.”

BLUE MAN GROUP creates experiences that defy categorization. BLUE MAN GROUP is best known for multi-media performances that feature three bald and blue characters who take the audience on a journey that is funny, intelligent, and visually stunning . A live band, whose haunting tribal rhythms help drive the show to its climax, accompanies the Blue Men.

“Our theatrical productions take a humorous look at what we like to call 2.5-D space,” says BLUE MAN GROUP Co-Founder Philip Stanton.  “An example of what we mean by this would be emailing or texting the person in the next office rather than walking over to talk to them face-to-face.”

“We say that no matter how high-tech things get, there’s still something human there.  We’ll always need others, always need to collaborate.   People still need to come together and look each other in the eye.  Through the Blue Man’s connection with the audience, we hope to encourage this human-to-human interaction, while helping people reconnect with their own sense of wonder and discovery, with their own sense of what is possible in their lives.”

BLUE MAN GROUP will play the Fabulous Fox Theatre January 15 - 20.  Performances are as follows:
  • Tuesday, January 15, 8:00PM
  • Wednesday, January 16, 8:00PM
  • Thursday, January 17, 8:00PM
  • Friday, January 18, 8:00PM
  • Saturday, January 19, 2:00PM, 8:00PM
  • Sunday, January 20, 1:30PM, 7:00PM
