REVIEW BY FELICITY LOLA DAYHEW (10).
Blue Man Group is a hilarious, loud, colourful performance. When three blue men show themselves they start an amazing journey through colour, music and laughter.
They bring people on stage too so be careful. Also if you sit in the front three rows brace yourselves. They make you wear plastic raincoats so you don’t get paint on you, this is from the paint drumming.
Before the performance starts and you’re in the theatre sitting in your seats look to your left and right and you’ll see screens. Read them before the play starts and trust me you’ll be surprised. Also do NOT be late. You will be put on the big screen with everyone looking at you.
There are lots of parts in the show and some of the acts are, making art out of lollies and playing songs on pipes with a couple of Australian numbers (sounds weird but it’s awesome). Another act is when the blue men buy giant iPads called Gipads, and they check out some of the apps.
The lighting is great. They use so many different types like flickering lights, coloured lights and spotlights.
I really liked Blue Man Group. It’s a great performance that I think you will totally LOVE.
