Nestled in Manhattan’s East Village since 1968, Astor Place Theatre has been a beacon for experimental theater. The venue first opened its doors with ‘The Indian Wants the Bronx,’ featuring a then-unknown Al Pacino. Over the decades, it has hosted a variety of avant-garde performances. Since 1991, the theater has been synonymous with the Blue Man Group, who purchased the space in 2001. Today, visitors can experience the unique and visually striking performances that have made this group a cultural phenomenon.
