COSTA MESA - Tickets went on sale Sunday to see the Blue Man Group perform at the Segerstrom Center in Costa Mesa Nov. 8-20.Tickets start at $20 and can be purchased online at scfta.org or by calling (714) 556-2787. Although Blue Man Group has toured previously with its Megastar arena rock show, this marks the first theatrical production to tour North America. The tour features classic Blue Man moments as well as brand new content. The tour also features a new physical design centering around a proscenium-sized LED curtain and high-resolution screen creating an entirely new visual experience for Broadway houses across the nation. "Until now, we have never mounted a touring version of our theatrical production," said Philip Stanton, co-founder of Blue Man Group. "The main reason for this is we needed to find a way to transform theaters of all shapes and sizes into spaces in which the Blue Man can intimately connect with the audience, where the audience can become engaged with the spirit of the show and of the Blue Man himself.
