Out of the Blue Comes One of Theater’s Most Unique Experiences
Exploding Paint, Homemade Instruments and Audience-Fueled Comedy Help a Global Phenomenon Continue Winning Over New Generations Nearly Four Decades After Its Debut.
June 11th, 2026
Blue Man Group is well-known for its bright blue characters, silent comedy, unusual instruments and infectious rhythm. Since debuting at New York’s Astor Place Theatre in 1991, the show has grown into a global entertainment phenomenon, reaching more than 50 million people worldwide through residencies, tours and international productions. With its 2026 North American Tour now making its way across the country, the Broward Center welcomed a show that still feels energetic, strange, funny and surprisingly fresh.
Audiences expect expressive blue mimes with catchy beats, electric lights and plenty of laughs. The North American Tour certainly delivered on the energetic, comedic show fans have come to expect while keeping audience participation at the center of the experience. A new generation of theatergoers was almost initiated right before our eyes, as every generation was present to enjoy the show. Young and old alike, first-timers and theater connoisseurs truly enjoyed every moment of this iconic performance.
Upon entering the theater, before the curtain even rose, scrolling messages appeared wishing audience members a personalized “happy birthday” and offering various other engaging prompts. The playbill was even full of stylistic, humorous blurbs in the dry comedic Blue Man fashion.
Attention to detail ensured that the audience really felt part of that strange, almost alien world. Transforming the mundane into music, the blue men created sound with pipes, plumbing, paint and even marshmallows. The drums exploded with neon paint, leaving audience members on the edge of their seats as the stage lit up with splashes of color, industrial rhythm and playful chaos.
Without a word spoken, the performers captivated the crowd through facial expressions, music and physical comedy. The audience laughed from start to finish, and no intermission was necessary. Audience members were invited on stage for a makeshift wedding, a game of Twister and even a piece of performance art that required a full-body suit and helmet. The crowd leaned in when a giant slingshot was loaded and aimed toward an innocent audience member who had no idea what he had volunteered for. Children and adults alike were jumping up and down, hoping to become part of the performance.
Everyone in the audience felt, in some way, as if they had escaped into the world of blue. Just make sure not to show up late, as two audience members quickly learned when their less-than-punctual arrival was made known to the entire crowd.
Blue Man Group delivers a theater experience that appeals to all ages and cultural backgrounds, which helps explain why it has remained relevant for nearly 40 years. The characters known simply as “The Left Blue Man,” “The Center Blue Man” and “The Right Blue Man” were accompanied by “The Rockstar,” the neon drumming presence that helped drive and ignite the action on stage.
The show delivered plenty of recognizable beats, iconic blue faces and nonstop chuckles. Its best moments made the audience truly part of the performance, with guests on their feet following prompts to “raise the roof” and deliver a “one-handed fist pump.” By the end, everyone seemed to leave with giant smiles on their faces.
Blue Man Group continues to evolve with new music, fresh stories, custom instruments and sensory-stimulating visuals, but its heart remains the same. It is still a euphoric celebration of human connection through art, music, comedy and non-verbal communication.
With only a few Broward Center performances left on June 12th and June 13th, this is the kind of blue you actually want to catch before it disappears.

Luli Fama celebrates its Paradise Found Cruise ’27 swimwear and resortwear collection with a luxury Miami launch at its Dadeland Mall boutique.
August 20, 2026
Miami swimwear favorite Luli Fama is stepping into Cruise ’27 with Paradise Found, a new swimwear and resortwear collection inspired by tropical escapes, exotic prints and effortless vacation glamour.
South Florida Insider has already taken a closer look at the Luli Fama Paradise Found collection, and it feels made for Miami.
The new Cruise ’27 collection combines the bold, body-confident swimwear Luli Fama is known for with elevated resort pieces designed to move effortlessly from the beach and pool to cocktails and dinner.
On Thursday, August 20, Luli Fama will celebrate Paradise Found with an exclusive evening at its newest Dadeland Mall boutique in Miami, complete with fashion, light bites, personalized surprises, and a luxe espresso martini bar.
Inside Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Collection
Paradise Found is inspired by the feeling of discovering a hidden tropical retreat.
Think lush landscapes, warm golden hour light, exotic patterns, and silhouettes made for somewhere beautiful.
The collection features Luli Fama signatures, including flattering ruched details, seamless construction, adjustable fits, and statement swimwear, alongside an expanded selection of resortwear.
We especially love the pieces that blur the line between swim and ready-to-wear.
Flowing dresses, sleek coverups, and body-skimming silhouettes make it easy to transition from a sun-drenched afternoon to an evening out without losing that relaxed resort feeling.
It is sensual, polished, and unmistakably Miami.
Luli Fama Brings Luxury Resort Style to Miami
There is a reason Paradise Found feels so natural in South Florida.
In Miami, resortwear is not reserved for vacation.
A swimsuit can become part of an outfit. A coverup can take you to lunch. A flowing resort dress can carry you from an afternoon by the water straight into cocktails and dinner.
Luli Fama has always understood that lifestyle.
Paradise Found takes it a step further, creating a Cruise ’27 wardrobe that feels as appropriate for a tropical getaway as it does for a weekend in Miami.
The campaign captures that mood beautifully, pairing the collection with palms, lush greenery, tropical architecture and the kind of sun soaked setting that makes you want to extend your vacation indefinitely.
Paradise Found Comes to Luli Fama at Dadeland Mall
Luli Fama will bring the world of Paradise Found to life on Thursday, August 20 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall in Miami.
The intimate celebration will bring together invited guests, influencers, celebrities and media for an early look at Cruise ’27.
Luli Fama is also dressing invited guests in pieces from the brand, allowing the new collection to be experienced the way it was designed to be worn: in motion, styled and out for the evening.
Luli After Hours Espresso Martini Bar
Fashion is only part of the experience.
For the Paradise Found celebration, Luli Fama is introducing Luli After Hours, an Espresso Martini Bar inspired by the glamour of the collection.
Guests will be able to sip three specialty espresso martinis created for the evening.
The Luli Babe puts a polished spin on the classic espresso martini, while Golden Hour pairs salted caramel with edible gold shimmer. Miami After Dark takes a richer approach with chocolate hazelnut and a cocoa dust finish.
Along with cocktails, guests can expect light bites, curated details and a special personalized surprise.
The result feels less like a traditional retail event and more like checking into a private resort for the evening.
A Miami Swimwear Brand Celebrates at Home
For a brand with such a strong connection to South Florida, launching Paradise Found in Miami feels especially fitting.
Luli Fama has built its identity around colorful, confident swimwear and resort fashion with a distinctly tropical point of view.
Paradise Found carries that identity into Cruise ’27 while giving it a more elevated, escapist mood.
And with Luli Fama’s newest boutique now at Dadeland Mall, Miami shoppers have another destination to experience the brand in person.
After getting our own closer look at Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 collection, we can safely say the name fits.
Paradise has officially been found, and this time, it is in Miami.
