Next month, you could have the chance to be blue.  The acclaimed performance artists, The Blue Man Group, will be casting in Chicago.  Don’t believe it only takes blue skin to be a blue man, the group has listed several requirements they are looking for in their applicants.

-Height between 5’10’’ and 6’2’’ (athletic build)

-Drumming skills and/or musicianship are an advantage, but a good sense of rhythm is a necessity.

-Excellent acting skills. Strong candidates often have backgrounds in theater and improvisation. Candidates are compelling and genuine nonverbal storytellers. They must thrive in a constantly evolving team environment on and off the stage.

-Willingness to relocate as the casting call helps to identify future Blue Men for existing and upcoming productions in Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas and Orlando.

Does this sound like you?  Does it make you feel blue…in a good way?  Auditions will be held at Briar Street Theatre (3133 N. Halsted St.) on Wednesday, Sept. 6 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.  Check out more info at CastingBlueMan.com.
