I can't recommend strongly enough "Blue Man Group" at the Astor Place Theatre. Several of us FTers met and saw the show (albeit in Chicago, but the shows are quite similar) and all were "blown away."
It is unique in every sense -- a combination of intriguing music, performance art, intellectual critique, vaudevillian slapstick, amazing feats, clever insights, and an unbelievable degree of enthusiastic audience participation. Let there be no doubt, absolutely every audience member will participate in some fashion, whether it's the 20-something woman invited on to the stage, or the 75-year-old grandmother belting out the words to Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit."
To quote the most descriptive review I've seen -- "If a picture is worth a 1000 words, then there aren't enough words in the English language to describe this show." For more details click
