The BLUE MAN GROUP is back in Seattle at the Paramount Theatre by popular demand. It was the perfect show to enjoy with my grandmother. Though we’re 50 years apart in age, we both love the unique show this group puts on. We’ve each seen BLUE MEN shows in other locales, but that’s the beauty of the BLUE MAN GROUP, s that no matter where you see them, the performers are top notch. Their show is a mix of technology, music, and comedy which creates a unique form of entertainment that never fails to feel fresh and unique even though this is their 25th anniversary year.
Rather than rest on their success, the trio of comedic percussionists keep the familiar crowd favorites and adds in new and exciting features. Like their previous shows, this group manages to interact and entertain the audience without saying a single word. They use props, music, facial expressions, gestures, and more to create a storyline that weaves its way throughout the entire performance. The show is fast-paced, and you’ll hardly notice that the 90-minute show doesn’t have a break.
Of course, these aren’t the original BLUE men. But new performers are brought in and trained to the same high standards. Check out the video below for a peek into the hiring process and watch the performers prepare for a performance.
BLUE MAN GROUP – A Family-Friendly Show for All Ages
This family-friendly show will have you and the kids talking about it for weeks. The show is recommended for kids ages 3+. To help you bring the show home, they’ve created some fun activities for kids to do! Check out The Science Of Goo, Melodious Mathematical Inventions, The Dance of the Group Member and the Trickster, and DIY Spin Art on the official BLUE MAN website.
One of the highlights of any BLUE MAN GROUP show is the meet and greet after the show where fans get a chance to interact one-on-one and take photos if you’re patient enough to wait in line. You’ll see the amount of blue goo needed to transform these performers into the alien-like creatures we see on stage and get a chance to ask questions and watch them react to reply.

I’ve been dying to see this show since I missed it last year at Blogger Bash. It looks like it is so much fun to attend.
I have always wanted to see the Blue Man Group. It looks like the whole experience would be super fun.
How much fun would this be! I think Blue Man Group would be very entertaining to watch. Something I’d love to do at some point!
I have never seen the Blue Man Group myself, but have seen clips of them and they seem absolutely fantastic! x
I have never seen the blue man show but have friends that have and they raved on how great it was. If I lived in your area, I would take advantage of that. Hopefully they will come to my area one of these next months.
I have always wanted to see the Blue Man Group. I have seen a few of their videos on line.
Oh how exciting! I saw this show a couple of times and I loved it. It’s seriously laugh-out-loud funny at times.
I have yet to see this performance. I have always wanted to see them.
Blue Man Group is the most fun you can have without breaking the law! We’ve seen their show several times, and it’s an absolutely amazing experience.
