The Luxor recently announced "Imagine" will close early next year to be replaced by "Blue Man Group".

Blue Man Group has appeared in several other cities including Chicago and received rave reviews. Has anyone had a chance to catch this show ?

Mark: I'm finally going to see it in NYC in August.

Any idea exactly when Blue Man Group will open at Luxor in 2000?

Don't have an exact date V, maybe an early Spring opening. The Blue Man Group has had a successful run in Chicago too.

It's just so much easier (valet parking, no long drive downtown, etc) to see a good show in Las Vegas.

My husband and I saw Blue Man Group here is Boston a few months back and it is fabulous! Different than anything I have seen and definitely entertaining!

Cathy,

I've heard it truly is a great show. How would you describe it ?

Mark

V,

I don't think an opening date has been announced yet. Maybe early March ?

I saw Blue Man Group Sunday night in New York. Wow! It was really great! I agree with Cathy--it's definitely different and so much fun. I knew enough about the show beforehand to check my common sense at the door <g> and just enjoyed the whole show so much.

Luxor *should* have a winner here, especially since it has enjoyed such a long run in NY and is still a hot ticket.

According to their Web site, Blue Man Group will open at the Luxor in March, 2000.

Cathy: I like this quote from their site:

"The success of the musical Chicago at Mandalay Bay proved Las Vegas is ready for legitimate theater, and now Blue Man Group will prove Vegas is ready for illegitimate theater." <g>

Tickets go on sale today for the Luxor's new show Blue Man Group. As mentioned before this show replaces Imagine which closes at the end of the year. Tickets will be $55 for mezzanine seats and $65 for seats in the front of the theatre. The show starts on 2/23/00 with a three week preview and then will continue for an indefinate run.

At the NY theater the people in the first 5 rows were given raincoats to wear during the performance, so beware! I'll just say I was very glad I wasn't in one of those rows.

I would definitely ASK when you phone for tickets if raincoats will be passed out and which rows won't get wet!
