Described as funny, intelligent and visually stunning, the Blue Man Group is an experience not to be missed.

So if you haven’t seen the Blue Man Group perform yet — or want to see it again — here’s your chance.

NETworks Presentations and Blue Man Productions are pleased to announce a new theatrical touring production that will visit the Lake Michigan College Mendel Center Mainstage for a two-night special engagement Oct. 29 and 30. Tickets are on sale now for this event.

The theatrical tour features brand new content highlighted by classic Blue Man favorites. The new sound, set, and video design centering around a proscenium sized LED curtain and high-resolution screen create an entirely new, high-impact visual experience.

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 an amazing journey. A live band, whose haunting tribal rhythms help drive the show to its climax, accompanies the Blue Men.

“In order to create a touring version of our theatrical production, we knew we had a creative challenge to tackle,” said Blue Man Group co-founder Philip Stanton. “We needed to find a way to transform theatres of all shapes and sizes into spaces in which the Blue Man can intimately connect with the audience, where the audience can become engaged with the spirit of the show and the Blue Man himself. We think we have finally figured it out, and hopefully we will accomplish our goal, which is always to help audience members reconnect with their own sense of wonder and discovery, with their own sense of what is possible in their lives.”
