I finally saw a Blue Man Group performance.
Launched in Manhattan 1987, Cirque du Soleil acquired Blue Man in 2017.
Three performers—called “Blue Men“—do not speak. They use music, colourful paint, and funny physical comedy to entertain the audience.

It’s worth seeing once, but I feel the novelty would wear off in a second viewing.
My main takeaways:
- ideal for children & young people
- percussion music is very good. Blue Man backed up by a 4 piece live band.
- juvenile humour, but I had a lot of laughs
- plenty of audience interaction. None of the victims are plants, as they are in some other Cirque shows.
- ticket prices are way down in Vegas summer 2026. Fewer tourists.
- acts change over time and are different in shows around the world
