The Blue Man Group at Charles Playhouse in Boston Massachusetts is one of the coolest shows you can see! Keep on reading for our review of the Blue Man Group at the Charles Playhouse in Boston's Theater District.
Let's first see some BlueMan group marketing info:
"Blue Man Group-Boston has been inspiring and entertaining audiences at the Charles Playhouse for nine years. This Off-Broadway sensation began selling out as soon as it arrived in 1995. Famous for reducing even the most eloquent theatregoer to one-syllable sputtering, the trio of blue men backed by a rock band, uses music, percussion, food, and audience members in its overwhelming performance. Blue Man Group is a multi-media, multi-sensory theatrical journey!" - Blue Man Group
I went to the show last year and it was one of the best shows I have ever seen. I had bought half-off tickets at a ticket booth outside of Faneuil Hall the day of the show. The seats really sucked, they were way up in the back and I had to sit on my seat to see the stage, but that's what you get for half off. Even with a poor view, I loved the show. I'd recommend that you get tickets far ahead of time and try to get the best seats available. Up in front there is a splash zone (watch out for the Blue Men smacking paint around)
Charles Playhouse is a relatively small theater in Boston's theater district. When you first get to the show you have to wait, crammed in the downstairs to be let into the theater area. There was a bar there though, so that may give some of you something to do. Once the show starts, it's magical. The Blue Men play all sorts of crazy instruments...there are colors, sounds....it's Hot! There is also a band that plays above the stage and they provide some great music too. There is a lot of multimedia stuff going on, with a big screen on stage. One of my favorites is when they play Teenage Wasteland.
At the end there was a really cool part, but I wont spoil it. Let's just say it involves strobe lights and something you normally find in a bathroom. You will have to go there and see for yourself. Go buy your tickets right now! You will love the show and impress the heck out of whoever you bring with you. There are tons of sites that offer tickets to the Blue Man show. Let us know what you think!
