Reviews
"Nice little theater. Blue Man Group Boston performs here. Very entertaining show. We were even offered seats in the lower section because my wife's knee was giving here problems. Very accommodating staff, and we were very grateful for that."
"Always love visiting the Charles Playhouse and seeing the Blue Man Group. I've never had a bad experience at the playhouse. The staff are super professional, courteous, and accommodating. The theater is well kept, seating is comfortable and at the end of the day, you're watching one of the most entertaining and creative shows ever . Thanks for making my Saturday awesome!"
"My second time at this venue to see the Blue Man show, 100% worth the money. I highly recommend it. Not too big of a space, if you are seating on the lower level, no worries about seating to far if you can't afford close up tickets."
"WOW! What an excellent and entertaining show! I've known about the Blue Man Group for years but didn't have an opportunity to see them until now. The playhouse itself is unimpressive, but that is just the vessel that contains a good hour and a half of solid entertainment. We were lucky enough, or unlucky by some opinions, to sit in the 3rd row. The ponchos draped over the seats for us lucky ones gave us a hint of what was to come. They didn't disappoint with their exploits on stage and the spritzing we received in the process. I won't spoil the grand finally by telling you what is in store, but it was a blast!! GO and enjoy with your family and friends! And just a heads up, this show tends to be loud, so consider bringing some hearing protection for the young ones. If you found this review helpful, please tap the thumbs up to let me know. Thanks!"
