Serious play dealing with inter-personal relationships, sexuality, and post-traumatic stress disorder. However, it is very visceral, and the actors are right in your face. (But the audience does not get picked on, so don't be afraid of that.) Great setting in a hotel room and the actors are intense. Collapse

The last time I saw Blue Man Group was probably about 20 years ago, when I lived in NYC. The current show in Boston has quite a bit of content from the old show, as well as some updated content (e.g., giant iPhones, called "Gi-Pads"). I took my sons, ages 7 and 10, and they loved it! The only thing that detracted from the experience was that our seats were in the balcony and had obstructed view of the stage because of the railings. Because so much of the show involves reading text that is displayed onstage, that was a bit aggravating. If you go, be sure to get seats downstairs. Collapse

My wife and I took our 13 year old son to the show. Strange show but very very fun. All of us were laughing and very entertained throughout. Would highly recommend

Great show for our 3 generations, ages 8 to 68. Very talented musicians and mimes, lots of activity and humor, good use of technology--plus the old standby, eating twinkies. What more could you ask for? Also, the grandsons (8 and 11) have photographs with members of Blue Man Group and memories of their favorite skits. Collapse

Great little place to watch some fresh talent cheaply. Maybe not all of the comics are All-Stars, but for the price, it's definitely a great time. When I went I saw 5 different comics even though only 3 were publicized. Great value for the money. I'll be back. Collapse

Blue Man Group is the best fun I've had in a long time. The group is different than a play. They're very funny. It's the type of place where you can shout out from the audience if you want or you can be quiet. Blue Man interacts with the audience. The finale is amazing. Don't miss the finale. Collapse

I was hesitant to spend so much money on BMG because I believed that it must be an overhyped show. Since I was able to get a good discount on BosTix, however, I decided to purchase tickets for our family of four. It was a great decision - my girls, ages 12 and 15, were rolling with laughter and my husband and I had a great time too. The performance was creative, stylish, and had just enough infantile humor to keep us very, very entertained. I highly recommend - don't be skeptical - see the show! Collapse
