report as inappropriateAbsolutely FABULOUS!! Such a fun show for everyone, of all ages. This is a must-see for everyone, whether you are visiting or living in Chicago! You will LOVE it!!
report as inappropriateAn entertaining event for all ages. At some point it is interactive so the closer you are to the stage, the better. I attended a mid May, 1pm performance and was surprised it wasn't sold out. This worked out great for us as we had great seats right in the middle.
report as inappropriateIt was a good show, but I wish we were able to know exactly where our seats were. There is an interactive part of the show that my family was not able to participate in because of where our seats were located.

Description
Strobe lights are used during the performance.
Blue Man Group, the wildly popular entertainment phenomenon, updated its production with recently added new material in its long-running production at Chicago’s Briar Street Theatre. The production provides its audience with a unique and thrilling multi-sensory experience that fuses innovative theatrical spectacle and powerful original music with hilarious comedy, art, technology and science to create a performance experience unlike any other.
The new material places the Blue Men in a variety of new environments to discover, engage with and explore of-the-moment situations and cutting-edge technology. Several of the signature scenes that have made Blue Man Group one of today’s best-loved theatrical productions remain in the production, though in most cases have also been updated.
New passages include Blue Men interacting with “GiPads;” a funny and perceptive look at contemporary communication vehicles; and a pulsating new finale featuring an original Blue Man Group music score.
As always, the production fuses innovative theatrical spectacle with improvisation and vaudeville-inspired comedy, art, science and irresistible original music performed by the Blue Man Group band.
