Blue Man Group is a creative organization centered on a trio of mute performers that present themselves in blue paint, latex bald caps, and black clothing. Friends Chris Wink, Matt Goldman and Phil Stanton (collectively referred to as CMP) conceived the idea during the 1980s while in New York City. They began appearing on the streets in Blue Man regalia, entertaining passersby, staging unusual events such as "The Funeral For the 80s", and short bits in Tom Murrin's "The Alien Comic's" underground cabarets in "The CLUB" at La MaMa Experimental Theater Club. Meryl Vladimer, then Artistic Director of "The CLUB," liked what she saw in their work and commissioned Blue Man Group to create a full-length show. The resulting piece, "TUBES," took off after Vladimer persuaded The New York Times critic Stephen Holden to review it.

White Rabbit (feat. Esthero) Lyrics
Blue Man Group
One pill makes you larger, and
One pill makes you small, and the
Ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all.
Go ask Alice,
When she's ten feet tall.
And If you go chasing rabbits, and
You know you're going to fall, tell 'em
A hookah-smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call.
Call Alice,
When she was just small.
When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving slow
Go ask Alice,
I think she'll know.
When logic and proportion have
Fallen sloppy dead, and
The white knight's talking backwards, and
The red queen's "off with her head!"
Remember what the dormouse said:
"FEED YOUR HEEEEEEAAAAAD!"
"FEED YOUR HEEEEEEAAAAAD!"
