Blue Man Group Cancels North Carolina Performances Over Anti-LGBT Law

by Andy Towle

Blue Man Group are the latest performing artists to stay out of North Carolina in the wake of passage of anti-LGBT law HB2.

Wrote the group on Facebook:

At the heart of every Blue Man Group performance is a joyful celebration of all human kind including our commonalities and our differences. We value every individual’s right to live a dignified, vibrant life in full color. As such, we are joining the growing list of entertainment professionals in protest of North Carolina’s HB2 law by canceling our upcoming tour performances in Charlotte.

We regret any disappointment this may cause our fans, but look forward to performing for you in the future

The group said all tickets would be refunded.
