New Orleans Arena
How to be a Megastar Tour 2.1

BLUE MAN GROUP is incomparable.
As any fan will tell you if asked to describe this unique 100-minute show-
"You just have to see it!"

It's Magical ...a display of sight, sound and illusion

It's Musical ...a rock concert heavy on percussion

It's Theatrical ...a riveting exploration of modern technology and information overload

It's Comedy ...an uproarious mockery of celebrity

It's Tragedy ...only if you miss it!

With their How to be a Megastar Tour 2.1, BLUE MAN GROUP embraces the rules, rituals, and raw excitement of the arena rock concert.

After obtaining a tongue-and-cheek "How to be a Megastar" video manual, BLUE MAN GROUP is joined by a blistering eight-piece band and takes the audience through a step-by-step, song-by-song, head bobbing, fist pumping rock concert journey.

Mix with some cobalt blue paint and you've got some idea of what you're going to see.
The result? A uniquely clev...
