cool. BLUE MAN GROUP has updated the wildly
popular theatrical show at the Astor Place
Theatre in New York City. Taking a closer
look at the technology that both surrounds
and isolates us, BLUE MAN GROUP showcases
technogeek ingenuity while uniting the audience
in primal, collective exhilaration. Signature
BLUE MAN GROUP moments combine with breathtakingly
fun new pieces for an explosive evening of
entertainment. With all this new fun there’s
never been a better time to see BLUE MAN GROUP.

New York Live Arts
For its third New York season,
director Anne Bogart and SITI Company celebrate
the 70th birthday year of Robert Wilson with
the revival of the Obie Award-winning one-man
tour-de-force, Bob. Inspired by the creative
life and times of the internationally acclaimed
avant-garde theater director, Bob will run
at New York Live Arts, January 19-29, 2012.
The 90-minute play is conceived and directed
by Bogart, created and performed by Will Bond
(a founding company member of SITI who has
worked with Wilson), and based on hundreds
of interviews Bogart collected and recorded
over several decades, which were then adapted
to the stage by Irish writer and dramaturg,
Jocelyn Clarke.
Bob premiered at the Wexner
Center for the Arts at The Ohio State University
in February of 1998 and had its New York premiere
in April of 1998 at New York Theatre Workshop
before touring the world at critical acclaim
for four years. It hasn’t been seen
in New York since 1998.
Acclaimed as a genius,
Wilson uses his own history and everyone around
him as fodder for his grandiose staged spectacles.
Best known for his groundbreaking 4 1/2 hour
production of Philip Glass’ opera, Einstein
on the Beach, he rides the fast track of the
ever-shrinking global art scene, and his vision
has been widely adapted in every field from
theater to music videos.
