Live show is irreplaceable!
I have watched the Cats DVD, The Phantom of the Opera DVD, the Lion King DVD and maybe hundreds of DVDs, but nothing is going to bring down the house like live shows.
The Phantom of the Opera, Broadway's longest-running musical, is such a sad love story that made the two old ladies sitting behing me burst into tears. Owing to my own listening disability, I could't really catch every words slipping from their mouths, especially with a British traditional accent. Anyway, I was still mesmerized by the melody and the choreography. Everytime the theme song flew through the musical hall, it kept me having goose bumps out of surprise and touch. It's such a pity that I couldn't understand the purpose of each scene and the lyrics of each song, and this was probably the reason I didn't cry like the two old ladies sitting behind me. I knew the outline but not the details. But, I love it! This is just all I can say.
If you don't agree with me, that's okay. But if you don't agree with the public response, well, that may be your problem. haha
Broadway is professional, like listening to a lecture in college, while Off-Broadway, which ticket price is much more friendly, is like listening to a talk show. A lecture can teach you something deep, deep as a black hole containing mystery. Well, a talk show is like a laughing-your-ass-off time, when you are brain dead for the time being.
Blue Man Group, an Off-Broadway show, dosen't have the so-called friendly ticket price. What they have is much more expensive price and a few seats available per show. Two prices: $78 or $68. What?! You serious? That's even much pricier than some of the Broadway shows! There must be some reasons, right?

Think about it, Blue Man is an Off-Broadway show. They don't tell some literature art work, while they bring you joy and laughter. Different from other Off-Broadway shows, even the price as high as the skyscrapers in Manhattan, their tickets are still often sold out, 24/7. They prosper, and grow stronger. Right now, their name is household. As for poor students, yes, they offer special limited tickets. And the chance is like winning a lottery. But, the other night, me and my brother were the winners! It was true! We got the limited tickets at the last second. $29 each. HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA!!!
Anyway, the point is not the price, is it?! The point is that Blue Man is just too awesome! I'm not going to tell you what they did during the show or how unbelievable they were, because that will ruin the mystery, imagination and your expectation.
Just go for it and enjoy it, I mean, if there is a chance... (wow, this is kind of bitchy. XD)
