Editor’s Note: This weekend’s Blue Man Group performances have been canceled due to the potential Atlanta winter storm. They have been rescheduled for June.

Blue Man Group returns to Atlanta this weekend with a refreshed national tour that pushes the long-running performance forward while holding onto its signature blend of music, comedy and spectacle. 

For the first time in the United States, audiences will meet a new onstage character known as the Rockstar,  a live DJ and drummer who brings a different kind of energy into the Blue Man universe. That role will be played by Ursula Sargent, a drummer and composer touring with the company, as it stops at the Fox Theatre.
