FIRST-EVER THEATRICAL TOUR PROMISES NEW MATERIAL
AND CLASSIC MOMENTS
JANUARY 21, 2010 – NETworks Presentations, LLC and Blue Man Productions are pleased to
announce a new theatrical touring production set to premiere in the Fall of 2010. Although Blue Man
Group has toured previously with its Megastar arena rock show, this marks the first theatrical production
of their show to tour North America. The theatrical tour will feature classic Blue Man moments as well as
brand new content that will delight audiences and fans young and old. Tour cities and dates will be
announced soon.
Blue Man Group on tour will also feature a new physical design that centers around a proscenium-sized
LED curtain and high-resolution screen to create an entirely new visual experience for Broadway houses
across the nation.
The critically acclaimed 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. Blue Man Group is accompanied by
a live band whose haunting tribal rhythms help drive the show to its unforgettable climax.
“NETworks is thrilled to produce this tour,” says NETworks CEO Kenneth H. Gentry. “Blue Man Group
complements our touring roster by adding a new level of entertainment with its combination of theatricality
and multiple-medium performance art.”
“People may ask why it’s taken more than 20 years for us to mount a theatrical tour,” says Blue Man cofounder
Matt Goldman. “The answer is simple: We wanted to get it right. As we prepare to bring our show
to new audiences across the country, we needed to make sure we incorporated all of the knowledge we
have gained over the years to make the most entertaining and emotionally powerful production ever.”
