Years ago, when I saw my company had The Blue Man Group on the books as a client and they employed ~400 people I was quite surprised. Then I got to thinking about the operation, the numerous business avenues of rights management, the touring, and then it started to make sense. Personally I'd rather work for a company that can afford to expand along with demand and maintain quality rather than siphon off cash and stuff it in an investor's pocket based on short-term mentalities.

Blue Man group is really a "franchise" operation. There are at least 12 productions going on around the world, and even on cruise ships! Because the men are "blue", they are interchangeable, too.
So you're saying there could be Blue Men walking among us and we wouldn't even know?
