Can you sing, act, and drum a mean rhythm on plastic piping?

Casting call drums up hopeful applicants for bizarre show

Pat Craig, CONTRA COSTA TIMES

ON THE TENDERLOIN border, where you see luxury hotels in one direction and Tennessee Williams-style street drama unfolding in another, noise is not a stranger.

Expressing themselves in song and danceYouths take to the stage as a path to mental health

By Don Aucoin, Globe Staff, 5/21/2002

BEVERLY - It was hard to say who was pummeling their drums harder, the three members of Blue Man Group or the nine teenagers ranged around them. All the spectators knew for sure was that they could feel the percussive storm in their chests.

Once it subsided, Blue Man Eric Rubbe suggested to Paula Conrad and Stan Strickland that next time the youths could end the piece by thrusting their hands skyward, just as Blue Man Group does. ''That would be nice, to include the kids,'' Conrad instantly replied.

Blueprint for success
By Jeremy Austin for The Stage

The Blue Man Group has shows across the US and has now made its long-awaited West End debut at the New London. The team behind the show shares with Jeremy Austin the philosophy which guides their abstract work

There are a couple of stock - possibly lazy - phrases one should not use when describing the work of the Blue Man Group.

One, performance art, was used by the group itself when it started. It now makes them cringe, they say. The second is mime.
