COMEDY | FALL BACK COMEDY FEST After the fright of Halloween, reengage your funny bone at the Fall Back Comedy Fest. The schedule includes both shows and workshops with tickets for individual events ranging from $5 to $10. The fest began on Tuesday, October 30, with a local showcase of comedy troupes, and will also include national comedians, improvisers, and musicians performing now through Sunday, November 4. Familiar faces will include Search Engine Improv, Nuts & Bolts, Flower City Improv Comedy, Geva Comedy Improv, and more. You won’t want to miss this showcase of incredible talent at what’s been called “The Best Comedy Fest in the New York West.” All shows will take place at The Space (in the Hungerford Building, 1115 E. Main St., Door 2, Floor 2) and will culminate in 40 acts and 13 shows across the span of six nights. For a complete schedule and to purchase tickets, visit fallbackcomedyfest.com. — BY LILLIAN DICKERSON

THEATER | BLUE MAN GROUP When the term “blue man” is used, a few things may come to mind — Smurfs, Violet Beauregarde (the girl who gets turned into a rotund blueberry in “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”), or the Blue Man Group. The troupe of nearly neon blue-skinned men will make an unforgettable impression when seen for the first time. Rochesterians will have the opportunity to experience Blue Man Group firsthand at the Auditorium Theatre (885 E. Main St.) from Friday, November 2, to Sunday, November 4. The performers will deliver their usual multimedia-bolstered performance art with a live band accompanying with tribal rhythms, and will debut new material in its first-ever theatrical tour. New sounds, sets, and video designs complete with a proscenium-sized LED curtain and high-resolution screens will create an entirely new dynamic to Blue Man Group’s already unique material. Shows will be held Friday at 8 p.m., Saturday at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., and Sunday at 1 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Tickets cost $39.50-$64.50 and can be purchased by calling 800-7453000 or by visiting rbtl.org. — BY LILLIAN DICKERSON p.m. Rochester Contemporary Arts Center, 137 East Ave. Through Nov 18. 461-2222. rochestercontemporary.org. “Neon Grey.” Through Dec 1.
