Blue Man Group ends 34-year run in New York City

The Blue Man Group ended its New York City production on February 2, 2025, after a 34-year run at the Astor Place Theatre. The show, known for its unique blend of music, comedy, and performance art, had nearly 18,000 performances. Owned by Cirque du Soleil since 2017, the group also closed its Chicago production this year. However, performances continue in Boston, Las Vegas, and Berlin, with plans for a new show in Orlando, Florida, in April. The Blue Man Group has significantly influenced the theatrical scene, inspiring similar productions and gaining recognition through awards and media appearances. Its closure marks a notable change for the performance art brand.
