For their new home, Blue Man Group have redesigned and modified their wildly popular show, which combines music, comedy and multimedia theatrics to create a form of entertainment that is totally unique. According to Blue Man Group's co-founders, Matt Goldman, Phil Stanton, and Chris Wink, the Venetian show has been designed with emotional impact in mind. Says Wink, "Our trademark has become the blissful, party atmosphere that our show creates in its own quirky way. The changes we are making are meant to boost the audience's elation to a whole new level."

Blue Man Group's appeal across a broad range of age groups and cultural backgrounds is a quality that distinguishes all of their endeavors, which include scoring projects (most recently the animated feature Robots), commercial projects (such as Intel), and television programs (such as the ongoing storyline of Blue Man Group on "Arrested Development").

The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino, a recipient of the Exxon/Mobile Four Star Award and the AAA's Four Diamond Award, is one of the world's most luxurious resort and convention destinations.
