There’s not much (or any) story to the Gazillion Bubble Show—everything you need to know is right there in the title. World renowned “bubble artist” Fan Yang and wife Ana have traveled the globe perfecting what they affectionately call “bubble artistry,” meaning you and yours are in for a filmy, floating, family-friendly spectacle.

Lights, lasers, music and a variety of tools come together to create a theater’s worth of the show’s namesake object, including square bubbles, bubbles within bubbles, “dancing” bubbles and a host of equally exotic soapy orbs of all sizes (including some big enough to fit a human). The spectacle climaxes with a deluge of pop able air globules that number, if not in the gazillions, then at least somewhere close.

Get your thrills as you sit back and enjoy the show (or not because you could be brought up on stage to get your own taste of the action).

Highlights
- Let the brilliant bald blue men take you to a new height
- Have the chance to get your 15 seconds of fame with audience interaction
- Get a top notch experience in the specially designed luxury theater

Blue Man Group has it all from giggles to drama, from rocking out to dancing about and everything in between. With a one-of-a-kind vibe that is only made better by the custom made theatre, you will be thrilled in every way imaginable from the get go. The audience will be brought together in such a way that words fail to describe, but to put it simply the crowd will be grinning from ear to ear! This show has rocked the worlds of millions and there’s a reason why the crowds keep flooding through the doors. With surprises lurking around every corner, you’ll be kept guessing as it becomes clear that they have more than just a few tricks up their sleeves.

What makes Blue Man Group stand out from the bunch is that the brilliant bald men do not speak! As the saying goes: Talk is cheap. Nobody utters a single word during the show! This may seem more than a little peculiar but that’s strangely part of the appeal. With that being said, don’t be fooled in to thinking that the show is silent because it’s far from it! The performers use a multitude of other imaginative means of getting their point across. You’re in for a real treat with bounds of energy demonstrated in music, comedy as well as exhilarating theatrics.

This show has something for everyone and of course as they aren’t any words there is nothing to hold you back in terms of language barriers. You might just be picked from the crowd to go on up to the stage and see what all the fuss is about up there whilst having a crack at whatever they have in store for you.

Ain't Too Proud is the electrifying new musical that follows The Temptations' extraordinary journey from the streets of Detroit to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Five guys. One dream. And a sound that would make music history. With their signature dance moves and unmistakable harmonies, they rose to the top of the charts creating an amazing 42 Top Ten Hits with 14 reaching number one. The rest is history — how they met, the groundbreaking heights they hit, and how personal and political conflicts threatened to tear the group apart as the United States fell into civil unrest. This thrilling story of brotherhood, family, loyalty, and betrayal is set to the beat of the group's treasured hits, including “My Girl,” “Just My Imagination,” “Get Ready,” “Papa Was a Rolling Stone,” and so many more.

After breaking house records at Berkeley Rep, The Kennedy Center, and at the Ahmanson Theater, Ain't Too Proud, written by three time Obie Award winner Dominique Morisseau, directed by two-time Tony Award® winner Des McAnuff (Jersey Boys), and featuring choreography by Tony nominee Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys, On Your Feet), now brings the untold story of this legendary quintet to irresistible life on Broadway.
