Since 1991 the ensemble known as Blue Man Group has been performing at the Astor Place Theatre in New York. They also have long-running shows at Boston’s Charles Playhouse, Chicago’s Briar Street Theatre along with shows in Orlando, Las Vegas and Berlin. With their current Speechless Tour, Blue Man Group gets to go to cities that haven’t often seen their shows locally. Speechless opens on Tuesday at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre where the show will run through October 6th.

Blue Man Group was formed in 1987. From their humble beginnings in New York, this show, which features three performers with blue masks with no dialogue, has become a worldwide phenomenon.

Speechless is a 90-minute show without an intermission. Blue Man Group utilizes music and array of stage effects to entertain audiences. If there is one thing they are known for it is their paint drums.

Perhaps Speechless should come with a cautionary note about the possible exposure to paint and other products during the performance. (Balcony members need not be concerned.)

Cirque du Soleil purchased Blue Man Group a couple years ago. That probably factors significantly into this new tour.
